Draft Grade — Cardinals

Larceny in pick No. 217 lands the Cardinals a B, Fifita and all.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Noah Fifita, the No. 198 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 217.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They will need Coleman Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In the 3rd pick they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Avieon Terrell
Avieon Terrell in the 34th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick65 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick104 Rnd4 Cade Klubnik
Cade Klubnik slid further than he should have, and No. 104 is lovely value for the quarterback. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick142 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. at Round 5, Pick 3 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick182 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
They liked Raylen Wilson enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 182. The roster fit checks out.
Pick217 Rnd7 Noah Fifita
The board fumbled Noah Fifita all the way to slot 217, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
