Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Saints let Pritchett fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Saints came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Pritchett. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

The Saints paired the rookies with proven help, Fred Warner leading the way.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value.
Pick150 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
No edge and no loss on Luke McCaffrey in the 150th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
Layden Robinson in pick No. 175 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick190 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
They took Tahj Washington at par in pick 190, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at No. 199 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick239 Rnd7 Tylan Grable
They let Tylan Grable come to them and pounced at the 239th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
