Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Vikings did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Jackson Slater in the 97th pick, a good 51 spots before the room expected him.

Getting Felton where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In slot 24 they get a sticky cover corner at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jackson Slater
They reached into another round for Jackson Slater, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tai Felton
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tai Felton in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
They let Jack Nelson come to them and pounced at pick No. 187. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
