Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureC-
The Cardinals let Barner fall into their laps, and walked away with a B. The rest of the league will want that one back. AJ Barner tumbling to the Cardinals in pick 236 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.
If Gadlin pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The veteran additions, Danielle Hunter chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In No. 29 they get a matchup problem out wide, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton slid further than he should have, and Round 2, Pick 3 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick39
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
No edge and no loss on Darius Robinson in pick 39; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick42
Rnd2
Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in pick No. 42 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick49
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at the 49th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick62
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Payton Wilson worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
They did well to land Patrick Paul in slot 72, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick73
Rnd3
Kris Jenkins
Taking Kris Jenkins in the 73rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick80
Rnd3
Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in Round 3, Pick 16 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick90
Rnd3
Marshawn Kneeland
The board had Marshawn Kneeland higher than slot 90, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93
Rnd3
Renardo Green
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 3 slot with a little surplus value in Renardo Green. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick97
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
Value with a capital V on Michael Hall Jr. in pick 97, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick100
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens in No. 100 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick101
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in pick No. 101 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick105
Rnd4
Andru Phillips
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Andru Phillips at the 105th pick. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick108
Rnd4
Malik Washington
They read the board right and Malik Washington was the payoff at No. 108. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick111
Rnd4
Matt Goncalves
Nothing to complain about; Matt Goncalves went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick113
Rnd4
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at the 113th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115
Rnd4
Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at the 115th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick121
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
They paid a round early for Ben Sinnott in pick 121, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick132
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
A quiet steal in Round 4, Pick 32: Cedric Gray for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick136
Rnd4
Jacob Cowing
The board had cheaper options than Jacob Cowing at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick138
Rnd5
Christian Mahogany
They will replay Christian Mahogany at slot 138 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139
Rnd5
Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at slot 139 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick140
Rnd5
Brennan Jackson
They liked Brennan Jackson enough to skip the value, taking him in the 140th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick149
Rnd5
Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at Round 5, Pick 13 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick157
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
They paid sticker price for Sione Vaki in the 157th overall pick, and that is fine. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick158
Rnd5
Khristian Boyd
A conviction pick on Khristian Boyd at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick162
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
They took Kamal Hadden at par in pick No. 162, which is nothing to complain about. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick164
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tanor Bortolini. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick165
Rnd5
Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy in No. 165 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick166
Rnd5
Fabien Lovett
A reach on Fabien Lovett in the 166th pick; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick178
Rnd6
Malik Mustapha
Fair-plus on Malik Mustapha, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick179
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They jumped the gun on Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick181
Rnd6
Nelson Ceaser
Nice patience on Nelson Ceaser, who had no business lasting to pick 181. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick184
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
A straight-up fair deal on Tahj Washington at the 184th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Myles Cole
Myles Cole at the Round 6 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186
Rnd6
Justin Rogers
By-the-book stuff, Justin Rogers at Round 6, Pick 11 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick194
Rnd6
Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at slot 194 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198
Rnd6
Logan Lee
A reach for Logan Lee in the 198th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick205
Rnd6
Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in slot 205 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick206
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
A premium they did not need to pay, Gabe Hall a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick207
Rnd6
Eric Watts
A big swing on Eric Watts at the Round 6 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick208
Rnd6
Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at pick No. 208 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick212
Rnd6
Kimani Vidal
They left a pile of value on the table to take Kimani Vidal this early at the 212th pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick214
Rnd6
Jaheim Bell
Steal is underselling it; Jaheim Bell at Round 6, Pick 39 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick218
Rnd6
Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams at No. 218 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick221
Rnd7
Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones in No. 221 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
They talked themselves into Jawhar Jordan at the 222nd overall pick, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick225
Rnd7
Cedric Johnson
No drama and no debate, Cedric Johnson went about where he belonged in slot 225. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick226
Rnd7
Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick No. 226 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick227
Rnd7
Edefuan Ulofoshio
They went early on Edefuan Ulofoshio in pick 227, and the value did not follow. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick228
Rnd7
Tayvion Robinson
Tayvion Robinson in the 228th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick229
Rnd7
Keaton Bills
They paid up for Keaton Bills at the Round 7 slot when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick230
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial in Round 7, Pick 10 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick231
Rnd7
Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton at pick 231 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick236
Rnd7
AJ Barner
A tight end of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 16 is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick237
Rnd7
Jaylen Harrell
Somehow Jaylen Harrell was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick241
Rnd7
Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at the 241st pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick242
Rnd7
Garret Greenfield
They barely believed it either: Garret Greenfield still on the board at pick No. 242. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick243
Rnd7
KT Leveston
KT Leveston at No. 243 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249
Rnd7
Jeremy Flax
Jeremy Flax at the 249th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick250
Rnd7
C.J. Hanson
A premium they did not need to pay, C.J. Hanson a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick252
Rnd7
Zion Logue
A wild overpay on Zion Logue in No. 252, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick253
Rnd7
Tyler Owens
No drama and no debate, Tyler Owens went about where he belonged in pick 253. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick256
Rnd7
X'Zauvea Gadlin
A real head-scratcher, X'Zauvea Gadlin in the 256th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
