Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Saints turned the phones into found money: B+.

The tape said wait; the Saints did not. Deantre Prince went at the 239th pick, a good 76 picks before the board was ready. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Thomas Jr..

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
Value with a capital V on Olumuyiwa Fashanu in pick No. 16, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick45 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
The board fumbled Brian Thomas Jr. all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in pick 75 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick81 Rnd3 Cade Stover
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cade Stover in the 81st pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick150 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick in No. 150 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick179 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joe Milton III. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick190 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
They reached into another round for Nathaniel Watson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick239 Rnd7 Deantre Prince
Deantre Prince at the 239th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
