Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The Vikings won the night they stopped Bowman Jr. from sliding. Grade: B.

The Vikings ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In the 24th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick97 Rnd3 Devin Neal
Nice patience on Devin Neal, who had no business lasting to slot 97. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Denzel Burke at No. 104. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick140 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at the 140th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim is a better player than pick No. 161 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
