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

The Vikings looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Elijah Roberts at the 139th overall pick regardless, 41 picks early. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Starks falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
A quiet steal in the 36th overall pick: Malaki Starks for less than the market said. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick97 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A clean, defensible pick in the 97th pick with a little surplus value in Darius Alexander. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
They talked themselves into Elijah Roberts at pick 139, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick187 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Connor Colby at the Round 6 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
