Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Vikings did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The war room fell hard for Jacob Parrish, and it showed at No. 159: 32 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

That Skattebo pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Job largely done: safety settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
No drama and no debate, Kenneth Grant went about where he belonged in the 24th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Sebastian Castro
Sebastian Castro is a better player than pick 97 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick138 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
They reached into another round for Jacob Parrish, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
