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

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Trinidad Chambliss at No. 82 is 36 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Love.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In the 18th overall pick they get a featured back, and a steal at that.
Pick49 Rnd2 Eli Stowers
The board had cheaper options than Eli Stowers at pick 49, and it noticed. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Trinidad Chambliss
A real head-scratcher, Trinidad Chambliss in pick No. 82 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
A straight-up fair deal on Jacob Rodriguez at the 97th pick, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
They paid sticker price for Jermaine Mathews Jr. in the Round 5 slot, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick194 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs at Round 6, Pick 15 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick234 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris at slot 234 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick240 Rnd7 Michael Harris
Michael Harris in Round 7, Pick 24 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
