Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueD+ NeedB TradesA FutureC
The Saints turned the phones into found money: B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Saints started one anyway for Marcel Brooks, 242 picks ahead of schedule. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The Castro pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In No. 10 they get a bell-cow for the offense, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
Jared Ivey in the 42nd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick74 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Harold Perkins Jr. in pick 74 is miles ahead of his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick76 Rnd3 Donovan Smith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Donovan Smith well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jermari Harris
Jermari Harris in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
They robbed the room for Sebastian Castro here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in Round 4, Pick 22 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at pick No. 168 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
They left a pile of value on the table to take Quincy Riley this early at the 171st overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick185 Rnd6 Shilo Sanders
They talked themselves into Shilo Sanders at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jake Smith
They reached a country mile for Jake Smith at slot 209, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick253 Rnd7 Marcel Brooks
A wild overpay on Marcel Brooks in the 253rd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
