A weekend the Cardinals spent ahead of the board, for worse: F. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Cardinals did exactly that with Delmar Glaze in pick 115. A F, plain and simple.
They banked enough surplus on Schrader to cover a lot of smaller sins. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
There is no soft landing here; this class has to massively overperform just to matter.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In slot 4 they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
Chop Robinson
In the 27th pick they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Quinyon Mitchell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Quinyon Mitchell in the Round 2 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick41
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
The board had cheaper options than Braden Fiske at pick No. 41, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at pick 58 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
They took Patrick Paul at par in Round 3, Pick 2, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick71
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
A slide stopped in the 71st overall pick, with Christian Haynes worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Devontez Walker in Round 3, Pick 27, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick104
Rnd4
Renardo Green
A premium they did not need to pay, Renardo Green a notch or two before his time. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick111
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
No drama and no debate, Isaac Guerendo went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113
Rnd4
Tyler Davis
They paid sticker price for Tyler Davis in No. 113, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick115
Rnd4
Delmar Glaze
Delmar Glaze at slot 115 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in the 123rd pick is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick127
Rnd4
McKinnley Jackson
A tidy little value on McKinnley Jackson in pick No. 127, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick138
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
No edge and no loss on Jacob Cowing in the 138th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149
Rnd5
Beau Brade
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Beau Brade for less than the market said. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick162
Rnd5
Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker in pick No. 162 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick171
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
They will replay Roger Rosengarten at the 171st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick172
Rnd5
Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson in pick 172 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick184
Rnd6
Anthony Gould
Anthony Gould in No. 184 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick185
Rnd6
Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at Round 6, Pick 10 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick186
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
You do not let a cornerback like Kamal Hadden reach slot 186 and blink. They did not. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick189
Rnd6
Eric Watts
They liked Eric Watts enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick194
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
A wild overpay on Gabe Hall in slot 194, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick198
Rnd6
Logan Lee
Logan Lee at the 198th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick200
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington slipping to the 200th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Nothing to complain about; Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick204
Rnd6
Drake Nugent
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Drake Nugent. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
They read the board right and Curtis Jacobs was the payoff at Round 6, Pick 35. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick214
Rnd6
Cody Schrader
Taking Cody Schrader in pick No. 214 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick218
Rnd6
Myles Murphy
Myles Murphy at Round 6, Pick 43 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219
Rnd6
Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at slot 219 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick224
Rnd7
Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson at pick No. 224 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick226
Rnd7
Erick All
Nice patience on Erick All, who had no business lasting to pick 226. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227
Rnd7
Nathan Thomas
Circle this one: Nathan Thomas at the 227th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick237
Rnd7
Tyrice Knight
The board fumbled Tyrice Knight all the way to No. 237, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick238
Rnd7
KT Leveston
KT Leveston at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
They reached into another round for Jawhar Jordan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick242
Rnd7
Matthew Jones
They jumped the gun on Matthew Jones, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in pick No. 245 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick247
Rnd7
Zion Logue
They reached a country mile for Zion Logue at slot 247, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick248
Rnd7
Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford slid further than he should have, and the Round 7 slot is lovely value for the tight end. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253
Rnd7
Kimani Vidal
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kimani Vidal at No. 253. The roster fit checks out.
Pick254
Rnd7
Trevin Wallace
Steal is underselling it; Trevin Wallace at Round 7, Pick 34 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick255
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
By-the-book stuff, Marcellas Dial at pick 255 squarely in line with his ranking. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick256
Rnd7
Jeremy Flax
Jeremy Flax in the 256th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick257
Rnd7
Jarrett Kingston
They talked themselves into Jarrett Kingston at Round 7, Pick 39, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
