Draft Grade — Saints

The steal of the weekend belongs to the Saints and Bishop: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Cole Bishop at No. 152 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 14 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They robbed the room for Keon Coleman here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick136 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Isaiah Adams in No. 136. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick152 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at Round 5, Pick 16 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick170 Rnd5 Chau Smith-Wade
They read the board right and Chau Smith-Wade was the payoff at the 170th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
The board had Joe Milton III higher than pick 176, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick192 Rnd6 Andru Phillips
A cornerback of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Value with a capital V on Jordan Magee in the 205th pick, a genuine coup. It adds depth where they could use a little.
