Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Vikings checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named edge rusher, a need the Vikings walked right past. No fireworks, but a solid B.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Gordon II. They are betting Belton proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
A clean, defensible pick in pick 28 with a little surplus value in Luther Burden III. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick97 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Fair-plus on Charles Grant, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick102 Rnd3 Anthony Belton
They liked Anthony Belton enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 102. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord at the 130th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jonas Sanker in slot 139. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II slid further than he should have, and the 187th pick is lovely value for the running back. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick196 Rnd6 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick228 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They took Cam Jackson at par in Round 7, Pick 12, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick244 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Bilhal Kone in slot 244 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor itch, scratched.
