Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Vikings: B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Vikings walked right past. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The cost of the Gray reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Landing Stewart that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In pick 24 they get a bendy edge with upside, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick97 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
By-the-book stuff, Zy Alexander at Round 3, Pick 33 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick139 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne at slot 139 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick187 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
A premium they did not need to pay, Joshua Gray a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
