Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cardinals and Ransaw: B+.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Caleb Ransaw tumbling to the Cardinals in slot 237 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If Skattebo pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

The Cardinals clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the 23rd overall pick they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47 Rnd2 Grey Zabel
Grey Zabel at pick No. 47 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick58 Rnd2 Tre Harris
They took Tre Harris at par in slot 58, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cam Skattebo. It fills a real need, too.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Good price on Jordan Phillips in the 115th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board had Smael Mondon Jr. higher than No. 124, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick152 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Value with a capital V on Malachi Moore in the Round 5 slot, a genuine coup. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick159 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough is a better player than Round 5, Pick 21 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick166 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
Quietly one of the better values of the day, O'Donnell Fortune at the 166th overall pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick237 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Steal is underselling it; Caleb Ransaw at pick 237 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
