Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureA+
The Saints let Carter fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Barrett Carter, the No. 83 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 130. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Adding Dalton Risner by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 24th pick they get an anchor for the defensive front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at No. 40 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick71 Rnd3 Tre Harris
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick 71 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick93 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in the 93rd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
The board had Jalen Milroe higher than Round 4, Pick 10, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick130 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
You do not let a linebacker like Barrett Carter reach pick No. 130 and blink. They did not. A minor need, but a need all the same.
