Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA FutureB-
Carter should have been long gone. The Saints pounced, and earned a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Saints were there to profit. Barrett Carter, the No. 83 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 130.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. It is not that Carter is a bad player; it is that the Saints had louder needs to answer first.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In No. 14 they get a wrecking ball inside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in pick No. 40 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
They will replay Tyler Warren at the Round 2 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in Round 3, Pick 7 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They robbed the room for Jihaad Campbell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick93 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at pick 93 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Darien Porter
Circle this one: Darien Porter at the 111th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Fair-plus on Jared Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick130 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
A curious use of pick No. 130. Edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots needed the pick; a linebacker in Barrett Carter did not.
