Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Vikings cashed the board's mistake on Porter: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Vikings watched Darien Porter slide 21 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The cost of the Crenshaw-Dickson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
The board had Nick Emmanwori higher than the 35th overall pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick67 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at slot 67 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick97 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Darien Porter in No. 97, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick103 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
They read the board right and Darius Alexander was the payoff at pick No. 103. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jake Majors
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jake Majors. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
They let Jeffrey Bassa come to them and pounced at the Round 5 slot. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick187 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
A premium they did not need to pay, Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick205 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith in the 205th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
A tidy bit of business in pick 219, where Luke Lachey graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
