Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA-
Larceny in the Round 6 slot lands the Vikings a A-, Fortune and all.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Vikings watched O'Donnell Fortune slide 53 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at pick 33 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick45 Rnd2 Shavon Revel Jr.
Somehow Shavon Revel Jr. was still sitting there in No. 45, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick94 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Value with a capital V on Donovan Jackson in the 94th pick, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
No drama and no debate, Cam Skattebo went about where he belonged in pick No. 100. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick101 Rnd3 Jack Bech
Jack Bech at the 101st overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick103 Rnd4 Omarr Norman-Lott
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Omarr Norman-Lott reach slot 103 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at Round 4, Pick 15 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick140 Rnd5 Denzel Burke
Circle this one: Denzel Burke at the Round 5 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jordan James
A running back of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick161 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
The board fumbled Anthony Belton all the way to pick 161, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick172 Rnd5 Lander Barton
Steal is underselling it; Lander Barton at the 172nd overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick179 Rnd6 O'Donnell Fortune
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, O'Donnell Fortune in slot 179, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick198 Rnd6 Mitchell Evans
Taking Mitchell Evans in No. 198 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick208 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
They robbed the room for Quincy Riley here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
