Larceny in pick 230 lands the Cardinals a B-, Robertson and all.

Thirty-one other rooms let Sawyer Robertson slide, and the Cardinals were the ones holding the card at pick 230. Highway robbery.

The cost of the Mills reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Christen Miller
In pick No. 17 they get an anchor for the defensive front, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Sam Leavitt
Value with a capital V on Sam Leavitt in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick81 Rnd3 Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks at slot 81 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It fills a real need, too.
Pick117 Rnd4 Monroe Mills
Monroe Mills at the 117th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick156 Rnd5 Dane Key
By-the-book stuff, Dane Key at Round 5, Pick 18 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick195 Rnd6 Dijon Johnson
A big swing on Dijon Johnson at the 195th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick230 Rnd7 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson at No. 230 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
