Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Vikings worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Vikings took Eric Gentry at the 240th overall pick, roughly 117 spots before his name belonged.

Ponds falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The Ponds pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots still on the board.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In the 28th pick they get a sticky cover corner at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick49 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Nice patience on Dillon Thieneman, who had no business lasting to pick 49. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick69 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Lee Hunter at the 69th overall pick is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick82 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
They zigged when the board said zag, taking D'Angelo Ponds at cornerback with edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots open.
Pick97 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in No. 97 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128 Rnd4 Logan Jones
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Logan Jones. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
They liked Aamil Wagner enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 5 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick194 Rnd6 Charles Jagusah
They jumped the gun on Charles Jagusah, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Cole Payton
They paid sticker price for Cole Payton in No. 234, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick240 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Eric Gentry. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
