Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Vikings robbed the room for Bowman Jr.. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Billy Bowman Jr. sat on the board until pick No. 139, and the Vikings did not need to be asked twice.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The cost of the Pegues reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Safety was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In pick No. 24 they get a No. 1 receiver, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A running back of that caliber at No. 134 is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Taking Billy Bowman Jr. in the 139th pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra slipping to the Round 5 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick164 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at Round 5, Pick 26 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick165 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at the 165th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Good price on Jack Kiser in pick 187, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It adds depth where they could use a little.
