Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Saints.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named cornerback, a need the Saints walked right past.

Every board in the league had Harrell lower, and that gap is the story. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick45 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A reach for Edgerrin Cooper in pick 45; a little patience would have been rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick136 Rnd4 James Williams
Fair-plus on James Williams, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick152 Rnd5 Austin Booker
By-the-book stuff, Austin Booker at the 152nd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
They jumped the gun on Isaiah Davis, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick176 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaylen Harrell in No. 176, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Wiley at the 192nd pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick200 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They took Gabe Hall at par in Round 6, Pick 25, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
