Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA FutureA+
The Vikings leave the weekend clear winners: A-.

There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Vikings never got to the one that mattered most.

They will need Holly to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Laken Tomlinson pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

In the end it comes back to Jermod McCoy, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a sticky cover corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick64 Rnd2 Bud Clark
No edge and no loss on Bud Clark in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick82 Rnd3 Connor Lew
A slide stopped in No. 82, with Connor Lew worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick118 Rnd4 Darius Taylor
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Taylor. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick157 Rnd5 DJ McKinney
They paid sticker price for DJ McKinney in pick 157, and that is fine. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick173 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
Fair-plus on Xavier Nwankpa, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick196 Rnd6 Lawson Luckie
No drama and no debate, Lawson Luckie went about where he belonged in the 196th overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jack Velling
They took Jack Velling at par in pick No. 208, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick231 Rnd7 Trey Holly
Trey Holly at pick 231 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
