Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Vikings cashed the board's mistake on Schwesinger: B+.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Vikings came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.

On value alone, Schwesinger makes the weekend a net positive. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori slid further than he should have, and Round 2, Pick 1 is lovely value for the safety. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick63 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They let Alfred Collins come to them and pounced at the 63rd pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick94 Rnd3 Savion Williams
A reasonable price with a little left over, Savion Williams in the Round 3 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick97 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at pick No. 97 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick139 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Brashard Smith in slot 139 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179 Rnd6 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill at pick 179 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick187 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 187th pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick216 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
They read the board right and Caleb Rogers was the payoff at Round 6, Pick 40. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick226 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
A quiet steal in slot 226: Caleb Ransaw for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick251 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in the 251st overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 Sam Brown Jr.
Sam Brown Jr. in No. 257 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
