A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Cardinals get a C. The Cardinals torched the value chart for Shaun Dolac, taking him 160 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.
Ferguson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.
They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend. Kingsley Enagbare gives the group a proven body among the projects.
So much rides on Mike Green that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Mike Green
They took Mike Green at par in No. 26, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick36
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
A real head-scratcher, Donovan Ezeiruaku in pick No. 36 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick49
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
A straight-up fair deal on JT Tuimoloau at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
They paid up for Tate Ratledge at the 58th pick when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick59
Rnd2
Deone Walker
They went early on Deone Walker in slot 59, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick78
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at pick 78 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick81
Rnd3
Jordan Phillips
They reached into another round for Jordan Phillips, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick87
Rnd3
Tre Harris
Tre Harris at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
No edge and no loss on Ozzy Trapilo in pick 88; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick106
Rnd4
Cody Simon
Cody Simon at Round 4, Pick 5 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116
Rnd4
Tez Johnson
They robbed the room for Tez Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
They liked Darius Alexander enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 118. It fills a real need, too.
Pick125
Rnd4
Lathan Ransom
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Lathan Ransom at the 125th overall pick is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick126
Rnd4
Mello Dotson
A reach for Mello Dotson in pick No. 126; a little patience would have been rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick127
Rnd4
Oronde Gadsden II
A premium they did not need to pay, Oronde Gadsden II a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick128
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin in the 128th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick129
Rnd4
Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson in No. 129 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick131
Rnd4
Raheim Sanders
Value said wait; Raheim Sanders in pick 131 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick132
Rnd4
Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord in the Round 4 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133
Rnd4
Hollin Pierce
Value with a capital V on Hollin Pierce in slot 133, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick138
Rnd4
Jabbar Muhammad
They jumped the gun on Jabbar Muhammad, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick139
Rnd4
Ahmed Hassanein
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ahmed Hassanein in the 139th pick, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick140
Rnd5
Fadil Diggs
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Fadil Diggs well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick141
Rnd5
Connor Colby
They talked themselves into Connor Colby at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick142
Rnd5
Jack Kiser
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jack Kiser this early at pick No. 142. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143
Rnd5
Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at pick 143 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick147
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at No. 147 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick148
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at Round 5, Pick 9 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick151
Rnd5
RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey at the 151st overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick153
Rnd5
Tonka Hemingway
They reached a country mile for Tonka Hemingway at slot 153, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick154
Rnd5
Cam Jackson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cam Jackson. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick155
Rnd5
Shaun Dolac
A big swing on Shaun Dolac at slot 155, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick156
Rnd5
Chase Lundt
They paid a round early for Chase Lundt in pick 156, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161
Rnd5
Nick Nash
Nick Nash at pick No. 161 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick162
Rnd5
Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson at the 162nd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick164
Rnd5
Trey Zuhn III
A wild overpay on Trey Zuhn III in the 164th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick165
Rnd5
Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick167
Rnd5
Jalen Travis
They talked themselves into Jalen Travis at Round 5, Pick 28, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick168
Rnd5
Que Robinson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Que Robinson this early at the Round 5 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick175
Rnd5
Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at the 175th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick181
Rnd6
Pat Bryant
They barely believed it either: Pat Bryant still on the board at pick No. 181. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
