2020 NFL Draft: Full grades for every 3rd-round pick

Breaking down every third-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, with complete grades for every selection

74. New Orleans Saints

Zack Baun | EDGE/LB | Wisconsin

Baun was viewed as a potential first-round talent for much of the draft process, but he ended up falling into the third round, where he ended up on a championship contender.

Baun is an athletic and versatile defender who can rush the passer effectively off the edge, but he can also move around fluidly in space as an off-ball linebacker. His flexibility and flashes of hand usage when engaged with blockers could see him utilized in numerous different ways. With the Saints’ base 4-3 defense, he likely projects as a linebacker, but he could end up rushing the quarterback off the edge at times, too.

GRADE: A+
