Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC-
The Vikings fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

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

The Luckie pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. McCoy falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the Round 1 slot they get a downhill hitter at safety. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jermod McCoy
A quiet steal in slot 35: Jermod McCoy for less than the market said. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick50 Rnd2 Eli Stowers
They took Eli Stowers at par in the 50th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick173 Rnd5 Lawson Luckie
They reached into another round for Lawson Luckie, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick196 Rnd6 Rico Flores Jr.
Rico Flores Jr. at pick 196 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick208 Rnd6 Riley Mahlman
Riley Mahlman at pick No. 208 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick231 Rnd7 Rueben Owens
A reach for Rueben Owens in No. 231; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
