Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Vikings let Lawson fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Vikings were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value.

Lawson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Lee pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In slot 4 they get a downhill hitter at safety. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Deontae Lawson
The board fumbled Deontae Lawson all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick61 Rnd2 Iapani Laloulu
Iapani Laloulu in pick 61 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 David Bailey
David Bailey in the 67th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kayin Lee
A premium they did not need to pay, Kayin Lee a notch or two before his time. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick208 Rnd6 J.Michael Sturdivant
They read the board right and J.Michael Sturdivant was the payoff at pick No. 208. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jeremiah Cobb
By-the-book stuff, Jeremiah Cobb at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
