Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Vikings this weekend: B.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Vikings reached some 44 spots for Raheem Anderson, and value like that does not grow back. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Taylor.

With quarterback and interior defensive lineman unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the 21st overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value.
Pick50 Rnd2 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers in pick No. 50 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick69 Rnd3 Bud Clark
No edge and no loss on Bud Clark in Round 3, Pick 5; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick85 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
They did well to land Sonny Styles in pick 85, just ahead of his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jeremiah Wilson
A surprising call. With quarterback and interior defensive lineman still to address, they spent the Round 3 slot on Jeremiah Wilson, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick118 Rnd4 Isaiah Nwokobia
Somehow Isaiah Nwokobia was still sitting there in the 118th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jack Endries
Jack Endries at pick No. 121 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157 Rnd5 Darius Taylor
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Darius Taylor in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158 Rnd5 Dane Key
They took Dane Key at par in Round 5, Pick 20, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa at slot 173 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick183 Rnd6 Kelby Collins
A real head-scratcher, Kelby Collins in pick 183 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jordan White
A premium they did not need to pay, Jordan White a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick208 Rnd6 Marquis Johnson
Marquis Johnson at the 208th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick231 Rnd7 Raheem Anderson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Raheem Anderson this early at No. 231. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
