Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC+ FutureA
Grand theft in the 111th pick: the Saints steal Neal and grade out a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Julian Neal, the No. 90 name on the board, stolen at pick 111.

Spending an early pick on linebacker with edge rusher and quarterback open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 4th overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, reach and all.
Pick35 Rnd2 Christen Miller
Christen Miller at slot 35 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick36 Rnd2 Caleb Lomu
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Caleb Lomu. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67 Rnd3 Nyck Harbor
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nyck Harbor at the Round 3 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
A curious use of the 104th pick. Edge rusher and quarterback needed the pick; a linebacker in Harold Perkins Jr. did not.
Pick111 Rnd4 Julian Neal
They will replay Julian Neal at Round 4, Pick 11 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick128 Rnd4 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in pick No. 128. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick138 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Fair-plus on Parker Brailsford, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Michael Trigg
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Michael Trigg at Round 5, Pick 4 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick168 Rnd5 Isaac Smith
By-the-book stuff, Isaac Smith at pick No. 168 squarely in line with his ranking. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick182 Rnd6 Terion Stewart
Terion Stewart at the 182nd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
