Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueB
NeedB+
TradesA-
FutureA
Good, not great, for the Cardinals: B+. The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Cardinals walked right past.
Raekwon Davis gives the group a proven body among the projects. On value alone, Booker makes the weekend a net positive.
Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In the 15th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 27 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
They did well to land Tyler Guyton in pick 35, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick46
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in Round 2, Pick 14 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66
Rnd3
Ruke Orhorhoro
No edge and no loss on Ruke Orhorhoro in the 66th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mike Sainristil. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick90
Rnd3
Austin Booker
A tidy bit of business in slot 90, where Austin Booker graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick138
Rnd5
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at No. 138 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick162
Rnd5
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. at pick 162 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
