Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Everything else got attention, and cornerback got none. That is a strange way for the Saints to leave a draft. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In the 8th pick they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Zion Young
Zion Young in pick 42 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick73 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at No. 73 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick132 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 132 with a little surplus value in Harold Perkins Jr.. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick136 Rnd4 Malik Benson
A straight-up fair deal on Malik Benson at the 136th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
