Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall C
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesF FutureB
Larceny in the 82nd overall pick lands the Vikings a C, Haulcy and all.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Vikings watched A.J. Haulcy slide 33 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The Igbinosun pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher still on the board.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the Round 1 slot they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick49 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in pick 49 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick82 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy in Round 3, Pick 18 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jadarian Price
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Jadarian Price in pick No. 92, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Julian Neal
Julian Neal at the 94th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick97 Rnd3 Brenen Thompson
The board had Brenen Thompson higher than the 97th overall pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. in No. 108 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick127 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
They took Eli Raridon at par in slot 127, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick133 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
A surprising call. With edge rusher still to address, they spent the 133rd pick on Davison Igbinosun, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick138 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Steal is underselling it; Bryce Lance at the 138th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jude Bowry
Jude Bowry in the Round 5 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick194 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at pick 194 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick234 Rnd7 Kaden Wetjen
A tidy bit of business in Round 7, Pick 18, where Kaden Wetjen graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jalon Daniels
Nothing to complain about; Jalon Daniels went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
