Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints bet the future on Mendoza. The board says B-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Fernando Mendoza is the Saints' quarterback, full stop.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. If Sapp pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyreak Sapp
They reached a country mile for Tyreak Sapp at the Round 2 slot, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick72 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. is a better player than slot 72 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick129 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
A slide stopped in the 129th overall pick, with Zachariah Branch worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick138 Rnd4 Tao Johnson
Tao Johnson at the 138th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price slipping to pick 146 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Max Iheanachor
Good price on Max Iheanachor in No. 169, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick185 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
A conviction pick on Oscar Delp at pick No. 185 that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
