Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Vikings let Moore fall into their laps, and walked away with a D.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Vikings shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Moore at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

The cost of the Bryant reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Wyatt Milum. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick48 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the 48th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick73 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at No. 73 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick97 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at pick 97 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick98 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
A reach on Jordan Phillips in the 98th overall pick; the board had better options right there. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick140 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Malachi Moore in slot 140, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick161 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
A wild overpay on Cobee Bryant in pick No. 161, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick182 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ollie Gordon II in No. 182. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick224 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier at the 224th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
