Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

FutureC
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Cardinals. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cardinals spent No. 217 on Jack Pyburn, a name most had 73 spots down the list. No fireworks, but a solid B-.
The Boerkircher value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.
The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Jeremiyah Love
In No. 3 they get a workhorse for the backfield. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis at pick 34 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65
Rnd3
Lee Hunter
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Lee Hunter at the Round 3 slot is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick104
Rnd4
Zakee Wheatley
They let Zakee Wheatley come to them and pounced at the 104th pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick109
Rnd4
Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst in pick No. 109 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110
Rnd4
De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling in Round 4, Pick 10 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123
Rnd4
Keagen Trost
They reached a country mile for Keagen Trost at pick No. 123, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143
Rnd5
Bryce Boettcher
A real head-scratcher, Bryce Boettcher in pick 143 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144
Rnd5
Drew Allar
They paid a round early for Drew Allar in No. 144, more than the board wanted. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick145
Rnd5
Nadame Tucker
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nadame Tucker well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick154
Rnd5
Hezekiah Masses
Hezekiah Masses slipping to Round 5, Pick 14 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick182
Rnd6
Reggie Virgil
Reggie Virgil at slot 182 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick183
Rnd6
Zane Durant
They paid sticker price for Zane Durant in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick184
Rnd6
Travis Burke
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Travis Burke at the 184th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick185
Rnd6
Nate Boerkircher
Taking Nate Boerkircher in Round 6, Pick 4 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217
Rnd7
Jack Pyburn
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jack Pyburn this early at the 217th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
