Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Saints.

The Saints torched the value chart for Noah Whittington, taking him 40 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Getting Igbinosun where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In the 8th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Fair-plus on Anthony Hill Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick60 Rnd2 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers in slot 60 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick132 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Nice patience on Davison Igbinosun, who had no business lasting to No. 132. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148 Rnd5 Zane Durant
Zane Durant in pick 148 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kaleb Proctor
Kaleb Proctor in the 170th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick188 Rnd6 Noah Whittington
They talked themselves into Noah Whittington at slot 188, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
