Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
The Saints robbed the room for Johnson. Final grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dillon Johnson got past him. The Saints do not have to explain a thing at pick 199. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In pick 23 they get a long-term starter on the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick45 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at the Round 2 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Fair-plus on Edgerrin Cooper, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick86 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
A reasonable price with a little left over, Calen Bullock in pick No. 86. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick108 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
No drama and no debate, Mekhi Wingo went about where he belonged in the 108th overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
By-the-book stuff, Sataoa Laumea at Round 4, Pick 27 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson slipping to slot 150 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
Circle this one: Jacob Cowing at No. 175 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick190 Rnd6 Trente Jones
Trente Jones at No. 190 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick199 Rnd6 Dillon Johnson
Dillon Johnson in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
