Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Saints for Norman-Lott: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Omarr Norman-Lott, the No. 75 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 111.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The skill positions did well by the weekend. A fair-value weekend of trading, no edge to be found.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 9 they get a three-down runner. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
You do not let a linebacker like Jalon Walker reach slot 40 and blink. They did not. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick71 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
The board fumbled Harold Fannin Jr. all the way to the 71st overall pick, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick93 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Somehow Andrew Mukuba was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick111 Rnd4 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in Round 4, Pick 10 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Quinn Ewers
Circle this one: Quinn Ewers at No. 130 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick254 Rnd7 Logan Parr
No drama and no debate, Logan Parr went about where he belonged in the 254th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
