Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueC+
NeedB

FutureB
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The Cardinals went off the board in a big way for Shaun Dolac, 188 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
Watts at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick36
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kenneth Grant in No. 36. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick37
Rnd2
Mike Green
Mike Green is a better player than pick 37 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick47
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Good price on Tyler Booker in slot 47, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick56
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
They did well to land JT Tuimoloau in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78
Rnd3
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. at pick No. 78 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick85
Rnd3
Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston slipping to the 85th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick86
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Steal is underselling it; Deone Walker at slot 86 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick89
Rnd3
Xavier Watts
The board fumbled Xavier Watts all the way to Round 3, Pick 25, and they scooped it up. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94
Rnd3
Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow in the 94th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick95
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick96
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Elijah Arroyo in pick No. 96, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick98
Rnd3
Kyle McCord
A big swing on Kyle McCord at the 98th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick99
Rnd3
Savion Williams
Savion Williams in No. 99 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100
Rnd3
Jamaree Caldwell
Value said wait; Jamaree Caldwell in pick 100 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick102
Rnd4
David Walker
They reached into another round for David Walker, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103
Rnd4
Logan Brown
Logan Brown at slot 103 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104
Rnd4
Tory Horton
Tory Horton at Round 4, Pick 3 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick114
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
The board had Cam Skattebo higher than No. 114, and the running back fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick116
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
They left a pile of value on the table to take Willie Lampkin this early at the 116th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118
Rnd4
Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac in pick No. 118 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick124
Rnd4
Kyle Williams
A wild overpay on Kyle Williams in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick125
Rnd4
Nick Nash
Nick Nash at pick 125 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126
Rnd4
Bhayshul Tuten
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Bhayshul Tuten well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick129
Rnd4
Fadil Diggs
They reached a country mile for Fadil Diggs at the 129th overall pick, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick131
Rnd4
Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson in pick No. 131 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick132
Rnd4
Tyler Cooper
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Cooper in Round 4, Pick 31, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick136
Rnd4
Terrance Ferguson
A tight end of that caliber at the 136th pick is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick152
Rnd5
RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in the Round 5 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
