Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueC-
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Cardinals this weekend: B+. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cardinals took Trey Knox a full 99 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.
They banked enough surplus on McKinstry to cover a lot of smaller sins. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. On the needs board they went 8 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick2
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In slot 2 they get a building block for the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick3
Rnd1
JC Latham
In the 3rd pick they get an anchor for the offensive line, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick8
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get an island corner, though they paid up to get him. Need was not the driver here.
Pick9
Rnd1
Darius Robinson
In pick 9 they get a disruptor off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick12
Rnd1
Braden Fiske
In No. 12 they get a disruptive interior force, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick18
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In pick 18 they get a double-digit-sack hope. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick19
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In No. 19 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick20
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
A straight-up fair deal on Terrion Arnold at Round 1, Pick 20, value and slot in agreement. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick21
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
A conviction pick on Jackson Powers-Johnson at the 21st pick that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick22
Rnd1
Ladd McConkey
In slot 22 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick23
Rnd1
Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at pick No. 23 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick24
Rnd1
Roman Wilson
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick25
Rnd1
Ricky Pearsall
In the 25th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick26
Rnd1
Malachi Corley
In pick No. 26 they get a matchup problem out wide, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27
Rnd1
Xavier Legette
In the 27th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick28
Rnd1
Roger Rosengarten
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick29
Rnd1
Ben Sinnott
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a security blanket over the middle, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick30
Rnd1
Cade Stover
In the 30th overall pick they get a mismatch in the passing game, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick31
Rnd1
Jaylen Wright
In pick 31 they get a centerpiece for the ground game, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick32
Rnd1
Trey Benson
In slot 32 they get a bell-cow for the offense, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick33
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
A wild overpay on Chris Braswell in No. 33, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick34
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
The board had cheaper options than Edgerrin Cooper at the 34th pick, and it noticed. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick35
Rnd2
Cedric Gray
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cedric Gray this early at the Round 2 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick36
Rnd2
Marshawn Kneeland
A big swing on Marshawn Kneeland at pick 36, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick40
Rnd2
Adisa Isaac
A reach on Adisa Isaac in No. 40; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick41
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
They reached into another round for Ruke Orhorhoro, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick42
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at slot 42 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick43
Rnd2
Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at the 43rd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick44
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
A quiet steal in pick No. 44: J.J. McCarthy for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick45
Rnd2
Maason Smith
They talked themselves into Maason Smith at No. 45, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick46
Rnd2
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in the 46th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick48
Rnd2
Mike Sainristil
They took Mike Sainristil at par in the 48th pick, which is nothing to complain about. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick49
Rnd2
Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in slot 49 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick50
Rnd2
Renardo Green
This one needs a full-page explanation: Renardo Green in pick No. 50, miles early. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick51
Rnd2
Max Melton
A premium they did not need to pay, Max Melton a notch or two before his time. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick52
Rnd2
Junior Colson
A clean, defensible pick in pick 52 with a little surplus value in Junior Colson. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick53
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at the Round 2 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick54
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
They did well to land Xavier Worthy in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick55
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin in pick No. 55 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick57
Rnd2
Nate Wiggins
Circle this one: Nate Wiggins at slot 57 is a fall that decides a draft. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick59
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in No. 59 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick63
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the 63rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick64
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
The board had Kris Jenkins higher than Round 2, Pick 32, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick66
Rnd3
Malik Washington
Malik Washington at pick 66 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick67
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
They paid sticker price for Cooper Beebe in the 67th pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick68
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
No drama and no debate, Ja'Lynn Polk went about where he belonged in the 68th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick69
Rnd3
Javon Baker
Javon Baker in No. 69 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick70
Rnd3
Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at slot 70 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72
Rnd3
Austin Booker
Austin Booker at Round 3, Pick 8 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick74
Rnd3
Mohamed Kamara
Value said wait; Mohamed Kamara in pick No. 74 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
They reached a country mile for Gabriel Murphy at the Round 3 slot, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76
Rnd3
DeWayne Carter
A real head-scratcher, DeWayne Carter in pick 76 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77
Rnd3
Brennan Jackson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Brennan Jackson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick78
Rnd3
Xavier Thomas
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Xavier Thomas well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79
Rnd3
Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis in pick No. 79 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick82
Rnd3
Tommy Eichenberg
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tommy Eichenberg this early at the Round 3 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick83
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in slot 83. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick84
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at pick 84 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86
Rnd3
Brandon Coleman
A reach for Brandon Coleman in No. 86; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87
Rnd3
Isaiah Adams
They reached a country mile for Isaiah Adams at the 87th pick, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick90
Rnd3
Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the 90th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick92
Rnd3
Cole Bishop
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cole Bishop. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick93
Rnd3
Elijah Jones
They talked themselves into Elijah Jones at slot 93, and the board did not agree. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
A big swing on Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at pick 94, well ahead of any board in the building. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick97
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
Nice patience on Dominick Puni, who had no business lasting to the 97th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick98
Rnd3
Brandon Dorlus
They read the board right and Brandon Dorlus was the payoff at pick No. 98. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick99
Rnd3
Javon Solomon
They paid up for Javon Solomon at Round 3, Pick 36 when waiting would have done the job. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick100
Rnd3
Ty'Ron Hopper
They reached into another round for Ty'Ron Hopper, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick101
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at the Round 4 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102
Rnd4
Kiran Amegadjie
They barely believed it either: Kiran Amegadjie still on the board at pick 102. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
No edge and no loss on Zak Zinter in the 106th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick107
Rnd4
Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick109
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at slot 109 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III in No. 110 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick111
Rnd4
McKinnley Jackson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, McKinnley Jackson well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick112
Rnd4
Cedric Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Cedric Johnson in the 112th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113
Rnd4
Edefuan Ulofoshio
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Edefuan Ulofoshio. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick114
Rnd4
Braiden McGregor
Value said wait; Braiden McGregor in the 114th overall pick says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick115
Rnd4
Kool-Aid McKinstry
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Kool-Aid McKinstry in the 115th pick, plain and simple. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick117
Rnd4
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick118
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
A wild overpay on Isaac Guerendo in Round 4, Pick 18, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick121
Rnd4
Caelen Carson
The board fumbled Caelen Carson all the way to No. 121, and they scooped it up. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick122
Rnd4
Myles Cole
Myles Cole at pick No. 122 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123
Rnd4
Jordan Jefferson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Jefferson in pick 123, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick124
Rnd4
Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall in slot 124 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125
Rnd4
Nelson Ceaser
They left a pile of value on the table to take Nelson Ceaser this early at pick No. 125. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick126
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
They talked themselves into Justin Eboigbe at the 126th pick, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick127
Rnd4
Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at No. 127 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick130
Rnd4
Grayson Murphy

Pick132
Rnd4
Jordan Magee
They reached a country mile for Jordan Magee at the Round 4 slot, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick134
Rnd4
Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at Round 4, Pick 34 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick135
Rnd4
Nathaniel Watson
Value said wait; Nathaniel Watson in the 135th overall pick says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick137
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jacob Cowing at pick 137. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick138
Rnd5
Ainias Smith
By-the-book stuff, Ainias Smith at Round 5, Pick 2 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick139
Rnd5
Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash at pick 139 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick140
Rnd5
Anthony Gould
Anthony Gould in No. 140 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.

Rnd5
Cody Schrader

Pick142
Rnd5
Fabien Lovett
A wild overpay on Fabien Lovett in the 142nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick143
Rnd5
Jaden Crumedy

Rnd5
Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at the 145th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick148
Rnd5
Tahj Washington

Pick151
Rnd5
Matt Goncalves
They robbed the room for Matt Goncalves here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152
Rnd5
Hunter Nourzad
They will replay Hunter Nourzad at Round 5, Pick 16 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini in pick No. 153 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.

Pick158
Rnd5
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
This one needs a full-page explanation: Zion Tupuola-Fetui in pick 158, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.

Rnd5

Pick179
Rnd6

Rnd6
Darius Muasau
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Darius Muasau. It fills a real need, too.
Pick181
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
Value said wait; Michael Barrett in pick No. 181 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick182
Rnd6
Malik Mustapha

Pick183
Rnd6
Decamerion Richardson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Decamerion Richardson at the 183rd overall pick is the proof. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.

Pick193

Pick196
Rnd6
Logan Lee

Rnd6
Myles Murphy

Pick208
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden

Pick209
Rnd6
Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade at the 209th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.

Pick215
Rnd6
Dylan Laube
A running back of that caliber at the 215th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick217
Rnd6
Jaheim Bell
You do not let a tight end like Jaheim Bell reach No. 217 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick220
Rnd6
Justin Rogers

Rnd7
Jowon Briggs
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jowon Briggs well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223
Rnd7

Pick235
Rnd7
Tarheeb Still

Pick238
Rnd7
