Good, not great, for the Saints: 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. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
