FutureC-
Grand theft in the Round 4 slot: the Saints steal Henderson and grade out a D-. The Saints put a flag in the ground for Gentry Williams, 56 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.
The Henderson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will answer for taking linebacker early while quarterback went begging.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at slot 33 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick35
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalon Walker at pick No. 35 is the proof. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick40
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
They jumped the gun on JT Tuimoloau, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick91
Rnd3
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in the 91st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick107
Rnd4
Omarr Norman-Lott
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 6 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110
Rnd4
Smael Mondon Jr.
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Smael Mondon Jr. adds a linebacker and leaves quarterback untouched.
Pick124
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
Steal is underselling it; Andrew Mukuba at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick128
Rnd4
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in No. 128 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick140
Rnd5
Kevin Winston Jr.
Somehow Kevin Winston Jr. was still sitting there in the 140th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick182
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier at pick 182 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick221
Rnd7
Gentry Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Gentry Williams well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick251
Rnd7
Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. at pick No. 251 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick254
Rnd7
Jared Wilson
Circle this one: Jared Wilson at slot 254 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
