Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Vikings.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Daylen Everette in pick 49, a good 34 spots before the room expected him. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They banked enough surplus on Thomas to cover a lot of smaller sins. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 18th pick they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, and a steal at that.
Pick49 Rnd2 Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette at pick No. 49 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick82 Rnd3 Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. at slot 82 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick97 Rnd3 Sam Roush
They did well to land Sam Roush in the 97th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick163 Rnd5 Amare Thomas
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 163 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jalen Stroman
The board had cheaper options than Jalen Stroman at Round 6, Pick 15, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Brandon Cleveland
A tidy little value on Brandon Cleveland in Round 7, Pick 18, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Latrell McCutchin Sr.
Latrell McCutchin Sr. at the 235th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Owen Heinecke
No drama and no debate, Owen Heinecke went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
