Draft Grade — Saints
Overall C-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A passer of the future in Daniels, and a C-, for the Saints.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Tip Reiman at Round 5, Pick 22, a reach of 67 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C-.

Everything downstream of Jayden Daniels depends on Jayden Daniels, and the building knows it. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the Round 1 slot they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick45 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 13 with a little surplus value in Edgerrin Cooper. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick95 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the 95th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick101 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
A premium they did not need to pay, Braelon Allen a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 James Williams
A straight-up fair deal on James Williams at slot 122, value and slot in agreement. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick138 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
A conviction pick on Roger Rosengarten at pick No. 138 that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson in slot 146 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149 Rnd5 Brandon Coleman
Brandon Coleman at the 149th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick158 Rnd5 Tip Reiman
A wild overpay on Tip Reiman in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
