Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cardinals worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jared Wiley at slot 137, a reach of 62 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The Johnson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In slot 4 they get a home-run threat at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick35 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A premium they did not need to pay, T'Vondre Sweat a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in No. 66. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in Round 3, Pick 18 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick90 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Good price on Blake Corum in pick 90, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick105 Rnd4 Christian Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Christian Jones this early at No. 105. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jared Wiley. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick150 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
A tight end of that caliber at the 150th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick161 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
The board had cheaper options than Ty'Ron Hopper at the Round 5 slot, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick188 Rnd6 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in the 188th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick222 Rnd7 Cornelius Johnson
Somehow Cornelius Johnson was still sitting there in pick 222, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
They paid sticker price for Javontae Jean-Baptiste in Round 7, Pick 4, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
They jumped the gun on LaDarius Henderson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick241 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
Evan Anderson at pick No. 241 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
