FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Cardinals this weekend: B. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Shaun Dolac at No. 113 is 193 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
The Restrepo pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
The veteran additions, Graham Barton chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick39
Rnd2
Shemar Stewart
They barely believed it either: Shemar Stewart still on the board at pick No. 39. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick47
Rnd2
Mike Green
Mike Green at the Round 2 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick55
Rnd2
Derrick Harmon
They will replay Derrick Harmon at the 55th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58
Rnd2
Aireontae Ersery
Nice patience on Aireontae Ersery, who had no business lasting to the 58th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68
Rnd3
Darien Porter
They liked Darien Porter enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 68. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick70
Rnd3
Tre Harris
Somehow Tre Harris was still sitting there in slot 70, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
They paid sticker price for Tate Ratledge in the 71st overall pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick74
Rnd3
Demetrius Knight Jr.
A quiet steal in the 74th pick: Demetrius Knight Jr. for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick78
Rnd3
Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at No. 78 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick80
Rnd3
Kyle Kennard
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Kyle Kennard worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick86
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at Round 3, Pick 22 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
A tidy bit of business in slot 88, where Elijah Arroyo graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jared Ivey
Jared Ivey slipping to pick 90 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91
Rnd3
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland at pick No. 91 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick95
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger is a better player than Round 3, Pick 31 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick97
Rnd3
Ty Robinson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ty Robinson. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick101
Rnd3
Quinn Ewers
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Quinn Ewers in No. 101. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick104
Rnd4
Luke Kandra
They paid up for Luke Kandra at the 104th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick105
Rnd4
Logan Brown
A big swing on Logan Brown at the 105th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106
Rnd4
Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick107
Rnd4
Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at pick 107 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick108
Rnd4
Tai Felton
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 108 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick109
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
A conviction pick on Darius Alexander at No. 109 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick112
Rnd4
Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at Round 4, Pick 11 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick113
Rnd4
Shaun Dolac
They talked themselves into Shaun Dolac at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick114
Rnd4
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in pick No. 114 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick117
Rnd4
Xavier Restrepo
Circle this one: Xavier Restrepo at pick 117 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
