Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Saints: B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Denzel Burke at slot 71 is 44 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. The bottom line is a respectable B.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Burden III. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Will Campbell
By-the-book stuff, Will Campbell at the 9th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
The board fumbled Luther Burden III all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
A real head-scratcher, Denzel Burke in the 71st pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick93 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
They took Darius Alexander at par in No. 93, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
