Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Saints left wide receiver untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That Pritchett pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Barner has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the 14th overall pick they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 45 with a little surplus value in Chop Robinson. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick136 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at slot 136 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick152 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in pick 152 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
A slide stopped in Round 5, Pick 34, with LaDarius Henderson worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick176 Rnd6 AJ Barner
They liked AJ Barner enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 176. The roster fit checks out.
Pick199 Rnd6 Jalen Green
A reach on Jalen Green in the 199th pick; the board had better options right there. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick205 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
