Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Saints: B.

The Saints put a flag in the ground for Tyreak Sapp, 137 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

That Lindenberg pick is the receipt they will wave around later. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 10 they get a centerpiece for the ground game, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Steal is underselling it; Malaki Starks at the Round 2 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick74 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Alfred Collins at the 74th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick90 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Gunnar Helm in No. 90, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tory Horton
The board had Tory Horton higher than Round 4, Pick 10, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick128 Rnd4 Tyreak Sapp
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyreak Sapp in the 128th overall pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick185 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. at the 185th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
Cody Lindenberg in No. 253 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
