Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureC
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cardinals spent No. 161 on Shaun Dolac, a name most had 175 spots down the list. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

However the rest shakes out, Tuten at that price is a win they earned. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In the 30th overall pick they get a green-dot type in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at pick No. 49 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick50 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with T.J. Sanders worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick51 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
They took Azareye'h Thomas at par in pick 51, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick59 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau slipping to slot 59 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick78 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A premium they did not need to pay, Deone Walker a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jaylin Noel
A tidy bit of business in slot 79, where Jaylin Noel graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick81 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Xavier Watts in Round 3, Pick 17, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick92 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor in the 92nd 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 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at No. 95 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick115 Rnd4 Ty Robinson
They reached into another round for Ty Robinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick119 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Good price on Anthony Belton in pick No. 119, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Miles Frazier
A tidy little value on Miles Frazier in the Round 4 slot, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick130 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
They robbed the room for Cam Skattebo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick132 Rnd4 Mitchell Evans
A reach for Mitchell Evans in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick134 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in pick 134 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick139 Rnd5 Quinn Ewers
Taking Quinn Ewers in Round 5, Pick 1 is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick142 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams at pick No. 142 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick159 Rnd5 Andrew Armstrong
Andrew Armstrong in slot 159 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick160 Rnd5 CJ West
This one needs a full-page explanation: CJ West in the 160th overall pick, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick161 Rnd5 Shaun Dolac
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Shaun Dolac well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick164 Rnd5 Mac McWilliams
A real head-scratcher, Mac McWilliams in No. 164 is miles ahead of his ranking. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim is a better player than No. 182 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius slid further than he should have, and Round 6, Pick 15 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick194 Rnd6 Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick196 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at the 196th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick197 Rnd6 Vernon Broughton
Nice patience on Vernon Broughton, who had no business lasting to pick 197. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
They read the board right and Jaylen Reed was the payoff at the 198th overall pick. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick199 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
Tyler Cooper at pick No. 199 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200 Rnd6 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at slot 200 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick208 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
They barely believed it either: Bhayshul Tuten still on the board at No. 208. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at the Round 6 slot is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
