Draft Grade — Saints

The Saints found their guy under center in Simpson: B-. Start where it matters. The Saints took Ty Simpson to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.
A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. The cost of the Height reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick8
Rnd1
Ty Simpson
In slot 8 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42
Rnd2
Romello Height
Romello Height in the 42nd pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
