The Cardinals lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story. The Cardinals put a flag in the ground for Edefuan Ulofoshio, 80 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
It is not that Jackson is a bad player; it is that the Cardinals had louder needs to answer first. Jackson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27
Rnd1
Chop Robinson
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get juice off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
JC Latham
You do not let an offensive lineman like JC Latham reach slot 35 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66
Rnd3
Braden Fiske
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Braden Fiske at the 66th pick is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71
Rnd3
Xavier Legette
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Legette. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick80
Rnd3
Max Melton
Max Melton slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick90
Rnd3
Renardo Green
Renardo Green at the 90th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick105
Rnd4
Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at Round 4, Pick 5 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick110
Rnd4
Malik Washington
Malik Washington in the Round 4 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick116
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 116th pick on Khyree Jackson with quarterback unsolved.
Pick124
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A want over a need in pick No. 124: Javon Solomon adds an OLB-EDGE while quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick128
Rnd4
Beau Brade
A curious use of No. 128. Quarterback needed the pick; a safety in Beau Brade did not.
Pick137
Rnd5
Eric Watts
They talked themselves into Eric Watts at slot 137, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick142
Rnd5
Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in pick 142 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick152
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
No edge and no loss on Cody Schrader in the 152nd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick160
Rnd5
Hunter Nourzad
A real head-scratcher, Hunter Nourzad in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick161
Rnd5
Dallin Holker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dallin Holker in Round 5, Pick 25. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick170
Rnd5
Edefuan Ulofoshio
This one needs a full-page explanation: Edefuan Ulofoshio in pick No. 170, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick171
Rnd5
Logan Lee
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Logan Lee well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick178
Rnd6
Jalyx Hunt
Nothing to complain about; Jalyx Hunt went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick188
Rnd6
Luke McCaffrey
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Luke McCaffrey in slot 188, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick189
Rnd6
Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen at No. 189 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick195
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington in No. 195 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick199
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the 199th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick211
Rnd6
Kimani Vidal
A wild overpay on Kimani Vidal in slot 211, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick222
Rnd7
Tyrice Knight
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 222 with a little surplus value in Tyrice Knight. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick224
Rnd7
Myles Cole
Myles Cole at Round 7, Pick 4 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick234
Rnd7
Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini slid further than he should have, and the Round 7 slot is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick235
Rnd7
Frank Gore Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Frank Gore Jr. in the 235th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick236
Rnd7
Jeremy Flax
Jeremy Flax at pick 236 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick240
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
They reached into another round for Marcellas Dial, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick241
Rnd7
Ryan Cooper Jr.
Value with a capital V on Ryan Cooper Jr. in Round 7, Pick 21, a genuine coup. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick245
Rnd7
KT Leveston
KT Leveston in pick 245 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick250
Rnd7
Jowon Briggs
Jowon Briggs at pick No. 250 is money in the bank, a DT-EDGE taken below his worth. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick252
Rnd7
Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee is a better player than No. 252 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
