Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 234th overall pick lands the Vikings a B-, Elliott and all.

The Vikings did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Keyshaun Elliott fell into slot 234.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick No. 18 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick49 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds at No. 49 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman is a better player than Round 3, Pick 18 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick97 Rnd3 Sam Hecht
Sam Hecht in the Round 3 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick161 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
Good price on Ted Hurst in the 161st overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick194 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in pick 194 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick234 Rnd7 Keyshaun Elliott
Somehow Keyshaun Elliott was still sitting there in slot 234, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick240 Rnd7 TJ Hall
A cornerback of that caliber at the 240th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
