Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B-

FutureD-
The Cardinals worked the phones like thieves and earned a B-. When the story of this class is written, it opens with Shaun Dolac at the Round 5 slot, a reach of 196 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.
The Turner steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Emeka Egbuka
In slot 25 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick26
Rnd1
JT Tuimoloau
In the 26th pick they get juice off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant is a better player than No. 33 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick38
Rnd2
Josh Simmons
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 2, Pick 6 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick48
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Steal is underselling it; Jalon Walker at the 48th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick54
Rnd2
Benjamin Morrison
The board had Benjamin Morrison higher than pick 54, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick60
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
Nothing to complain about; TreVeyon Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at No. 65 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick103
Rnd4
Jordan Burch
A slide stopped in Round 4, Pick 1, with Jordan Burch worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick115
Rnd4
Savion Williams
Savion Williams in pick No. 115 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick124
Rnd4
Ozzy Trapilo
They robbed the room for Ozzy Trapilo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
They reached into another round for Willie Lampkin, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133
Rnd4
Shemar Turner
Circle this one: Shemar Turner at the 133rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134
Rnd4
Miles Frazier
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Miles Frazier graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139
Rnd5
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Value said wait; Antwaun Powell-Ryland in the 139th pick says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick140
Rnd5
Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. in the 140th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick141
Rnd5
Ty Robinson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ty Robinson in No. 141, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick142
Rnd5
Shaun Dolac
A real head-scratcher, Shaun Dolac in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
