Draft Grade — Saints
Overall

The Saints checked most of the boxes and earned a B. For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Saints walked out of the weekend still thin at edge rusher, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.
They banked enough surplus on Hunter to cover a lot of smaller sins. Mbow has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Travis Hunter
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a sticky cover corner, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40
Rnd2
Marcus Mbow
A reach on Marcus Mbow in pick 40; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
