Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall

FutureA-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Vikings. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Le'Veon Moss, 42 picks early at pick 153.
They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Daniels pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Kenyon Sadiq
In the Round 1 slot they get a seam-stretching tight end. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43
Rnd2
Daylen Everette
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Daylen Everette. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick74
Rnd3
Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at pick No. 74 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick97
Rnd3
Zakee Wheatley
A tidy bit of business in the 97th overall pick, where Zakee Wheatley graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick153
Rnd5
Le'Veon Moss
Value said wait; Le'Veon Moss in No. 153 says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick169
Rnd5
Connor Tollison
Connor Tollison at slot 169 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206
Rnd6
Evan Stewart
Evan Stewart in Round 6, Pick 26 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick218
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
A reach on Trey Zuhn III in the 218th pick; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225
Rnd7
Amare Campbell
A reach for Amare Campbell in the Round 7 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick227
Rnd7
Bear Alexander
A wild overpay on Bear Alexander in the 227th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick229
Rnd7
Jordan Castell
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Castell at slot 229 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick237
Rnd7
Jalon Daniels
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalon Daniels at pick No. 237 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
