Grand theft in No. 149: the Saints steal Jackson and grade out a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Khyree Jackson got past him. The Saints do not have to explain a thing at the Round 5 slot.

Crumedy has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

That offensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick44 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
No drama and no debate, Kris Jenkins went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A reach for Chris Braswell in the 45th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick149 Rnd5 Khyree Jackson
Taking Khyree Jackson in No. 149 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
They read the board right and Jaylen Wright was the payoff at pick 167. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169 Rnd5 Curtis Jacobs
They went early on Curtis Jacobs in pick No. 169, and the value did not follow. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick174 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at Round 5, Pick 38 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A premium they did not need to pay, Jared Wiley a notch or two before his time. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jaden Crumedy
Jaden Crumedy at the 200th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster logic is harder to follow.
