Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB-
The Saints robbed the room for Jones. Final grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jarrian Jones had no business being available in pick No. 167, and the Saints did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 JC Latham
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a building block for the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They let Keon Coleman come to them and pounced at pick No. 45. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick164 Rnd5 Grayson Murphy
A tidy little value on Grayson Murphy in the 164th pick, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Good price on Luke McCaffrey 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.
Pick174 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
Fair-plus on Sione Vaki, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick192 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
No drama and no debate, Joe Milton III went about where he belonged in slot 192. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick201 Rnd6 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. in the 201st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick230 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They did well to land Frank Gore Jr. in Round 7, Pick 10, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
