Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureA+
The Saints robbed the room for Chestnut. Final grade: B+.

The Saints did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Duce Chestnut fell into No. 253. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

They are betting Dellinger proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The veteran additions, Montez Sweat chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick155 Rnd5 Riley Leonard
They will replay Riley Leonard at the 155th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jermari Harris
You do not let a cornerback like Jermari Harris reach Round 6, Pick 14 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
They left a pile of value on the table to take Garrett Dellinger this early at No. 192. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick198 Rnd6 Kyren Lacy
A real head-scratcher, Kyren Lacy in the 198th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick253 Rnd7 Duce Chestnut
Duce Chestnut at pick 253 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor itch, scratched.
