Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD FutureA+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cardinals and Wilson: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Johnny Wilson tumbling to the Cardinals in the 162nd pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They will need Jackson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 11th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In No. 27 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Value with a capital V on Tyler Guyton in slot 35, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 T'Vondre Sweat
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick71 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in pick 71 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
A quiet steal in pick No. 90: Kris Abrams-Draine for less than the market said. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick104 Rnd4 Will Shipley
No edge and no loss on Will Shipley in Round 4, Pick 4; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick110 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at the 110th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick138 Rnd5 Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade at pick No. 138 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick162 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
You do not let a wide receiver like Johnny Wilson reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick186 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They liked Curtis Jacobs enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 186. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
The board had Garret Greenfield higher than the 226th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
