Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals let Beck fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Carson Beck sat on the board until pick 144, and the Cardinals did not need to be asked twice.

The cost of the Smith reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
In the 8th pick they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in pick 39 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick70 Rnd3 Rod Moore
They did well to land Rod Moore in Round 3, Pick 6, just ahead of his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick105 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
They took Harold Perkins Jr. at par in pick No. 105, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick144 Rnd5 Carson Beck
They robbed the room for Carson Beck here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick188 Rnd6 Duce Robinson
They read the board right and Duce Robinson was the payoff at slot 188. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick222 Rnd7 James Smith
A big swing on James Smith at No. 222, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
