Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Vikings turned the phones into found money: B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Vikings, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it. The Vikings clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick46 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II at No. 46 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
No edge and no loss on Caelen Carson in pick 67; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick108 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A clean, defensible pick in slot 108 with a little surplus value in Dominick Puni. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
A straight-up fair deal on MarShawn Lloyd at Round 4, Pick 30, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick148 Rnd5 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in the 148th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the 160th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They paid a round early for Jaylan Ford in pick No. 166, more than the board wanted. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick179 Rnd6 Trey Knox
Trey Knox at the 179th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick230 Rnd7 Dylan McMahon
Dylan McMahon at pick No. 230 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
