Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB
The Saints checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Saints spent the 206th overall pick on Jordan Jefferson, a name the board had a full 36 spots lower. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Braswell falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 JC Latham
In slot 13 they get an anchor for the offensive line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick66 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in pick 66 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They did well to land Braelon Allen in the 102nd pick, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at No. 136 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick150 Rnd5 Theo Wease
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Theo Wease in the 150th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick170 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Billy Bowman Jr. at Round 5, Pick 34 is the proof. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick176 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
They paid sticker price for LaDarius Henderson in the 176th overall pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ricky White
Ricky White at No. 191 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Jefferson well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
