Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Vikings: B-.

The Vikings' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

The Williams pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In the 24th overall pick they get a building block for the line, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick97 Rnd3 Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams at pick No. 97 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick139 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
A reach for Trevor Etienne in No. 139; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187 Rnd6 Connor Colby
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Connor Colby. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
