Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
The Vikings did enough to get by: C+.

The Vikings went off the board in a big way for Donovan Jackson, 42 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Alexander pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

If Donovan Jackson and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Donovan Jackson
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a blindside protector, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick119 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
The board had Zy Alexander higher than the Round 4 slot, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick139 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
No edge and no loss on Malachi Moore in the 139th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick153 Rnd5 Nick Nash
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nick Nash. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jarquez Hunter
A straight-up fair deal on Jarquez Hunter at No. 187, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
