Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC- FutureB-
The Saints robbed the room for Pritchett. Final grade: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Saints were there to profit. Nehemiah Pritchett, the No. 142 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 176. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
No drama and no debate, Chop Robinson went about where he belonged in the 33rd pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick45 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
The board had Xavier Legette higher than Round 2, Pick 13, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick65 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Nice patience on Kingsley Suamataia, who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick136 Rnd4 James Williams
They paid sticker price for James Williams in slot 136, and that is fine. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
A quiet steal in the 152nd overall pick: Kamal Hadden for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
A slide stopped in pick No. 170, with Jaylen Wright worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick176 Rnd6 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at pick 176 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
Value with a capital V on Jordan Jefferson in No. 192, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick200 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick 200 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
