FutureD-
The Cardinals robbed the room for Johnson. Final grade: B. When a board-topper like Tez Johnson slides to pick 153, you do not overthink it, and the Cardinals did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
The cost of the Lampkin reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Mason Graham
In No. 20 they get a wrecking ball inside, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick21
Rnd1
Jack Sawyer
In slot 21 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick22
Rnd1
Derrick Harmon
In the 22nd overall pick they get a load in the middle at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick54
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
They read the board right and Tyler Booker was the payoff at the 54th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick60
Rnd2
Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at pick 60 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick61
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at Round 2, Pick 29 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick62
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick63
Rnd2
Mykel Williams
They robbed the room for Mykel Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick64
Rnd2
Aireontae Ersery
Circle this one: Aireontae Ersery at the 64th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick115
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
A quiet steal in slot 115: Cam Skattebo for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick119
Rnd4
Will Howard
Will Howard in pick 119 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
They reached into another round for Willie Lampkin, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick139
Rnd5
Logan Brown
They took Logan Brown at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick150
Rnd5
Malachi Moore
Nice patience on Malachi Moore, who had no business lasting to Round 5, Pick 12. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick153
Rnd5
Tez Johnson
The board fumbled Tez Johnson all the way to No. 153, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
