Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
D+
ValueC+
NeedB
TradesF
FutureC+
The Cardinals bled value on every deal, hence the D+. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Cardinals took Shaun Dolac at Round 4, Pick 36, roughly 200 spots before his name belonged.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Ewers falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Mason Graham
In the 22nd overall pick they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37
Rnd2
Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick 37 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick38
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in the 38th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at No. 57 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick58
Rnd2
Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams in slot 58 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick60
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
They went early on Tate Ratledge in pick No. 60, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick78
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo in No. 78 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick81
Rnd3
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in pick No. 81 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick99
Rnd3
Tai Felton
They paid sticker price for Tai Felton in the 99th overall pick, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100
Rnd3
David Walker
David Walker at Round 3, Pick 36 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick103
Rnd4
Kyle Williams
They talked themselves into Kyle Williams at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108
Rnd4
Cody Simon
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cody Simon in the 108th pick, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick109
Rnd4
Charles Grant
Steal is underselling it; Charles Grant at slot 109 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick119
Rnd4
Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers at pick 119 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick134
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
A big swing on Willie Lampkin at the 134th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138
Rnd4
Shaun Dolac
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Shaun Dolac. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
