Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-

Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Saints.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Saints walked out of the weekend still thin at offensive lineman, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

Every board in the league had Klubnik lower, and that gap is the story. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The back end got a real overhaul.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 8th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the back end at fair value.
Pick42 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
They paid sticker price for Dani Dennis-Sutton in the 42nd pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick73 Rnd3 Cade Klubnik
They liked Cade Klubnik enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 73. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick132 Rnd4 Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard at Round 4, Pick 32 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick136 Rnd4 Eric Rivers
Eric Rivers at slot 136 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick148 Rnd5 Sam Roush
They took Sam Roush at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick170 Rnd5 Le'Veon Moss
A reach for Le'Veon Moss in pick 170; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick188 Rnd6 Antonio Kite
A straight-up fair deal on Antonio Kite at pick No. 188, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
