Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Cowing should have been long gone. The Vikings pounced, and earned a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Jacob Cowing, slot 241, roughly 59 picks past where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Bralen Trice
In slot 20 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at No. 52 is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at pick 120 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick157 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in Round 5, Pick 21 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick162 Rnd5 Sincere Haynesworth
Sincere Haynesworth at the 162nd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick163 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
No edge and no loss on Malachi Moore in pick No. 163; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick179 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
They let Jaylin Simpson come to them and pounced at the 179th pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
