The Saints bet the future on Dart. The board says B-. The Saints spent the pick that matters most on Jaxson Dart, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The Dart reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Will Johnson
In No. 9 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27
Rnd1
Jaxson Dart
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a long-term answer under center, even if it was a touch early.
