Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Vikings, and a B- to prove it.

The Vikings torched the value chart for Isaac Brown, taking him 53 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

However the rest shakes out, Johnson at that price is a win they earned. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In the 18th pick they get a problem off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jamari Johnson
Jamari Johnson slipping to Round 2, Pick 17 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick82 Rnd3 Nyck Harbor
They went early on Nyck Harbor in slot 82, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick97 Rnd3 Ashton Hampton
A real head-scratcher, Ashton Hampton in pick 97 is miles ahead of his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick161 Rnd5 Drew Bobo
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Drew Bobo at the 161st overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick194 Rnd6 Isaac Brown
They left a pile of value on the table to take Isaac Brown this early at pick No. 194. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick234 Rnd7 Cole Sullivan
Cole Sullivan slid further than he should have, and Round 7, Pick 18 is lovely value for the linebacker. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick240 Rnd7 Randon Fontenette
Randon Fontenette at the 240th overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
