Tony from the Westbank: Saints Draft Grade = B (And Here’s Why)

“I’m giving it a solid B… and I’m not mad about it.”

Look, if you came into this draft expecting fireworks, you probably feel a little underwhelmed. No big-name splash, no headline pick everybody’s arguing about on TV.

But if you actually watched what they did?
This feels different.

This feels like they’re trying to build a football team again.


🧱 It Starts in the Trenches

  • Jeremiah Wright
    “331 pounds. SEC. Nasty. That’s how you fix an offense—stop getting pushed around.”

This is the kind of pick that doesn’t trend… but shows up in November.


⚡ They Added Speed (Finally)

  • Barion Brown
    “This one I like. Real speed. Return game. LSU kid. That’s instant juice if they use him right.”
  • Bryce Lance
    “Big body at 6’3”. Either this is a steal… or we’re gonna be asking why he’s not ready. No in-between.”

They didn’t get a “name”—but they added tools.


🛡️ Defense Got Deeper (and Tougher)

  • Lorenzo Styles Jr.
    “Ohio State DBs? I’ll take my chances. Athletic, flexible—coaches are gonna move him around.”
  • TJ Hall
    “Iowa DB. You already know—tackles, discipline, no nonsense.”

No stars here—but fewer weak spots.


🧠 Tony’s Real Take

“This draft ain’t winning no Instagram poll.”

“But it might win you a couple ugly games in December.”

You got:

  • Bigger up front
  • Faster on the edges
  • More reliable on defense

That’s how teams quietly get better.


📌 Final Grade: B

“Could it be an A? Yeah—if one of those receivers hits big.”

“But right now? Solid B.”

“Only thing missing…
who’s scoring when you need 30?”
