jjbucks DRAFTING FOR THECardinals
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B-
ValueB
NeedB-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a B-. The Cardinals' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.
Reaching for Carter left real value on the table behind him. On value alone, Williams makes the weekend a net positive.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in the Round 1 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick50
Rnd2
T.J. Sanders
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and T.J. Sanders at No. 50 is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick82
Rnd3
Tyleik Williams
A tidy bit of business in Round 3, Pick 18, where Tyleik Williams graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick119
Rnd4
Jayden Higgins
A real head-scratcher, Jayden Higgins in slot 119 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick155
Rnd5
Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at pick 155 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
