Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Ahmed Hassanein; the Saints did not wait, grabbing him 52 spots ahead at pick No. 184.

However the rest shakes out, Neal at that price is a win they earned. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
In No. 9 they get a problem off the edge, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in the Round 2 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick71 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at the 71st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick93 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
The board fumbled Elic Ayomanor all the way to the 93rd pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Devin Neal
Circle this one: Devin Neal at pick 112 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick131 Rnd4 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard at Round 4, Pick 29 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick184 Rnd6 Ahmed Hassanein
A wild overpay on Ahmed Hassanein in Round 6, Pick 8, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick248 Rnd7 Kitan Crawford
Fair-plus on Kitan Crawford, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jahvaree Ritzie
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jahvaree Ritzie in the Round 7 slot, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
