Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueD- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Vikings: B-.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Vikings did exactly that with Gavin Bartholomew in the 241st overall pick. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The King pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Donovan Jackson
In the 25th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick102 Rnd3 Tai Felton
Good price on Tai Felton in No. 102, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick130 Rnd4 Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins
They talked themselves into Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins at pick 130, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd5 Kobe King
Kobe King in Round 5, Pick 1 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick187 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Upton Stout in pick No. 187 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Gavin Bartholomew
A wild overpay on Gavin Bartholomew in the 241st pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
