FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cardinals a B-. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cardinals spent No. 103 on Oluwafemi Oladejo, a name most had 38 spots down the list. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Landing Peebles that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
By-the-book stuff, Walter Nolen at pick No. 16 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick35
Rnd2
Trey Amos
A reach for Trey Amos in the 35th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick103
Rnd4
Oluwafemi Oladejo
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Oluwafemi Oladejo. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick115
Rnd4
Jaylin Lane
Jaylin Lane in Round 4, Pick 13 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick152
Rnd5
Aeneas Peebles
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Aeneas Peebles at No. 152. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
