Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Saints a B.

For all the boxes ticked, the Saints skipped the loudest one: wide receiver is exactly as bare as it was.

They banked enough surplus on Ezeiruaku to cover a lot of smaller sins. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a blindside protector at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick40 Rnd2 Shavon Revel Jr.
They let Shavon Revel Jr. come to them and pounced at pick No. 40. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick71 Rnd3 Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku slipping to No. 71 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
