Draft Grade — Saints
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Saints and Washington: D-.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Saints did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They are betting Proctor proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Landing Washington that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They took Jordan Morgan at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick36 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
By-the-book stuff, Darius Robinson at Round 2, Pick 4 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick40 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 40th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick45 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the 45th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
They did well to land Patrick Paul in pick No. 73, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick90 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marshawn Kneeland. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick103 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Malik Washington at the Round 4 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick104 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at pick 104 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
A straight-up fair deal on MarShawn Lloyd at pick No. 105, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick137 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Johnny Wilson in the 137th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick149 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett slid further than he should have, and No. 149 is lovely value for the cornerback. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at slot 161 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick167 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
They jumped the gun on Dwight McGlothern, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick169 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
No edge and no loss on Walter Rouse in Round 5, Pick 33; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Elijah Jones
No drama and no debate, Elijah Jones went about where he belonged in pick No. 192. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick201 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
They went early on Josh Proctor in pick 201, and the value did not follow. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick230 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington at the 230th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
They paid a round early for Brevyn Spann-Ford in No. 231, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
