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

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Vikings watched Anthony Belton slide 28 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The back end got a real overhaul.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick No. 30 they get a two-high chess piece, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Good price on Alfred Collins in the 62nd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at the 97th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
The board fumbled Anthony Belton all the way to No. 139, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
A tidy bit of business in pick 187, where Ollie Gordon II graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
