Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Saints: B-.

The Saints' one glaring miss is edge rusher, a need they left exactly as they found it. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Every board in the league had Moore lower, and that gap is the story. The Slaughter pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get a centerpiece for the ground game. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 CJ Allen
They let CJ Allen come to them and pounced at the 42nd overall pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
They barely believed it either: Jake Slaughter still on the board at pick No. 73. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
No edge and no loss on CJ Daniels in the Round 4 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick136 Rnd4 Louis Moore
They talked themselves into Louis Moore at slot 136, and the board did not agree. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick148 Rnd5 Reggie Virgil
A reach for Reggie Virgil in the 148th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kaleb Proctor
By-the-book stuff, Kaleb Proctor at No. 170 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick188 Rnd6 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kaleb Elarms-Orr at pick 188 is the proof. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
