Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesD FutureA
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Saints and Gordon II: B.

Somebody in pick 254 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Saints sat still while Ollie Gordon II, the No. 164 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The Griffith reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
A slide stopped in the 33rd pick, with Kenneth Grant worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A clean, defensible pick in slot 40 with a little surplus value in Tyler Booker. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
They barely believed it either: Harold Fannin Jr. still on the board at Round 3, Pick 3. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick93 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
They jumped the gun on Ajani Cornelius, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in pick 94 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at pick No. 110 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick129 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in No. 129, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick182 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
Somehow Chris Paul Jr. was still sitting there in pick No. 182, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick251 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick254 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Steal is underselling it; Ollie Gordon II at Round 7, Pick 38 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
