Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueB
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB-
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+. Somebody in pick 105 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cardinals sat still while Malik Muhammad, the No. 60 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. The bottom line is a respectable B+.
Every board in the league had Capehart lower, and that gap is the story. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Francis Mauigoa
In No. 24 they get an anchor for the offensive line at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Jayden Maiava
Jayden Maiava in the 39th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman at pick No. 63 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick70
Rnd3
Olaivavega Ioane
Taking Olaivavega Ioane in No. 70 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick71
Rnd3
A'Mauri Washington
They took A'Mauri Washington at par in pick 71, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick72
Rnd3
Rod Moore
Rod Moore at the Round 3 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick73
Rnd3
Nyck Harbor
They barely believed it either: Nyck Harbor still on the board at the 73rd pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74
Rnd3
Connor Lew
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 10 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick105
Rnd4
Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad in the 105th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick106
Rnd4
Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
They talked themselves into Kenyatta Jackson Jr. at slot 106, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick107
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at the 107th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick108
Rnd4
Mikail Kamara
A premium they did not need to pay, Mikail Kamara a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110
Rnd4
DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart at No. 110 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick111
Rnd4
Domonique Orange
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Domonique Orange in slot 111, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick112
Rnd4
Austin Siereveld
They robbed the room for Austin Siereveld here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick113
Rnd4
Akheem Mesidor
A big swing on Akheem Mesidor at Round 4, Pick 13, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114
Rnd4
Max Klare
They will replay Max Klare at pick 114 for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick115
Rnd4
Chase Bisontis
A reach for Chase Bisontis in pick No. 115; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick116
Rnd4
Ian Strong
Ian Strong at the 116th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick117
Rnd4
Logan Jones
Logan Jones in slot 117 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick118
Rnd4
Jacob Rodriguez
Value said wait; Jacob Rodriguez in No. 118 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
