Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Vikings did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Vikings never addressed quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

The Burden III pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The cost of the Ransaw reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 1, with Luther Burden III worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick67 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 67 with a little surplus value in Wyatt Milum. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
They paid sticker price for Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 3 slot, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Nothing to complain about; Brashard Smith went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick179 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
A conviction pick on JJ Pegues at pick 179 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick187 Rnd6 Clay Webb
Clay Webb in No. 187 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 Caleb Ransaw
They reached a country mile for Caleb Ransaw at slot 192, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
