Draft Grade — Saints
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureA
The Saints won the night they stopped Moss from sliding. Grade: A-.

The Saints did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Le'Veon Moss fell into the Round 7 slot. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.

The Turner reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Adding Jalen Tolbert by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Bottom line, with Tetairoa McMillan leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
No edge and no loss on Colston Loveland in pick 42; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Steal is underselling it; Jihaad Campbell at No. 74 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick111 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Shemar Turner well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts at slot 123 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick194 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
The board fumbled Chris Paul Jr. all the way to the 194th overall pick, and they scooped it up. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick253 Rnd7 Le'Veon Moss
Circle this one: Le'Veon Moss at pick No. 253 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
