Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Vikings lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

The Vikings put a flag in the ground for James Smith, 37 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Put together, it is a D.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Sadiq steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In slot 13 they get a featured back at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick45 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
They barely believed it either: Kenyon Sadiq still on the board at the 45th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick52 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Nothing to complain about; Sonny Styles went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick77 Rnd3 Colton Hood
They let Colton Hood come to them and pounced at pick No. 77. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick97 Rnd3 Sam Leavitt
Sam Leavitt slipping to No. 97 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 James Smith
This one needs a full-page explanation: James Smith in Round 6, Pick 28, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick234 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
No edge and no loss on Trey Zuhn III in pick 234; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
