Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall A
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Cardinals let Pearsall fall into their laps, and walked away with a A.

The Cardinals spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Ricky Pearsall, the No. 43 name on the board, in pick No. 138. Very little went wrong, and the A is earned.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Adding Danielle Hunter by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Marvin Harrison Jr. and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick 27 they get a No. 1 receiver, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
Olumuyiwa Fashanu in pick No. 35 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick42 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in the 42nd pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They robbed the room for Kool-Aid McKinstry here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick66 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in the 66th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick71 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
They will replay Roman Wilson at Round 3, Pick 7 for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90 Rnd3 Renardo Green
A safety of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick104 Rnd4 Austin Booker
Austin Booker in No. 104 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick138 Rnd5 Ricky Pearsall
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Ricky Pearsall in No. 138, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick162 Rnd5 Elijah Jones
They barely believed it either: Elijah Jones still on the board at pick 162. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick186 Rnd6 Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman slipping to slot 186 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick226 Rnd7 Kalen King
Kalen King at the 226th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
