Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
The Saints won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Jack Endries; the Saints did not wait, grabbing him 48 spots ahead at No. 62. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher, quarterback and other spots went begging.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Reese.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 30 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick36 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Sonny Styles at linebacker with edge rusher, quarterback and other spots open.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jack Endries
Jack Endries at the 62nd pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick72 Rnd3 Cayden Green
They reached a country mile for Cayden Green at the Round 3 slot, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick129 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They reached into another round for DeMonte Capehart, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick138 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
CJ Daniels in the 138th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in pick 146 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick169 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at Round 5, Pick 29 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick185 Rnd6 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at the 185th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
