Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueD+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Saints a B-.

The Saints went off the board in a big way for Eric Singleton Jr., 42 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 John Henry Daley
In pick 8 they get a double-digit-sack hope, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick42 Rnd2 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
They reached a country mile for Kenyatta Jackson Jr. at pick No. 42, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jyaire Hill
They took Jyaire Hill at par in Round 3, Pick 9, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 J'Koby Williams
By-the-book stuff, J'Koby Williams at slot 132 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick136 Rnd4 Elijah Paige
Value said wait; Elijah Paige in the 136th pick says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick148 Rnd5 Eric Singleton Jr.
A wild overpay on Eric Singleton Jr. in No. 148, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kayin Lee
Kayin Lee at No. 170 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick188 Rnd6 Mason Curtis
Mason Curtis in the 188th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
