Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueB-
NeedB-
TradesA+
FutureB
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+. Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Cardinals spent Round 4, Pick 25 on Cody Schrader, a name the board had a full 88 spots lower. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mitchell. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. On the needs board they went 8 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze is a better player than pick No. 18 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick27
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In No. 27 they get a premier pass rusher, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick51
Rnd2
Quinyon Mitchell
You do not let a cornerback like Quinyon Mitchell reach the 51st pick and blink. They did not. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick66
Rnd3
Roger Rosengarten
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Roger Rosengarten. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71
Rnd3
Cade Stover
They went early on Cade Stover in pick 71, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75
Rnd3
Marshawn Kneeland
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marshawn Kneeland. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick76
Rnd3
T'Vondre Sweat
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 12: T'Vondre Sweat for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84
Rnd3
Maason Smith
A wild overpay on Maason Smith in slot 84, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88
Rnd3
Zach Frazier
They robbed the room for Zach Frazier here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick90
Rnd3
Andru Phillips
They let Andru Phillips come to them and pounced at pick 90. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick92
Rnd3
Cole Bishop
No drama and no debate, Cole Bishop went about where he belonged in No. 92. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick93
Rnd3
Malik Washington
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Malik Washington in the 93rd pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick97
Rnd3
MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd at pick No. 97 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick105
Rnd4
DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter in the 105th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick109
Rnd4
Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at slot 109 squarely in line with his ranking. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick114
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at the Round 4 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick115
Rnd4
Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha in pick 115 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick116
Rnd4
AJ Barner
AJ Barner in pick No. 116 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick119
Rnd4
Christian Mahogany
The board fumbled Christian Mahogany all the way to the 119th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick122
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
This one needs a full-page explanation: Beaux Limmer in Round 4, Pick 22, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick125
Rnd4
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader in the 125th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at No. 126 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138
Rnd5
Myles Cole
A real head-scratcher, Myles Cole in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick143
Rnd5
Jordan Jefferson
They talked themselves into Jordan Jefferson at slot 143, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick148
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
Taking Jacob Cowing in pick No. 148 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162
Rnd5
Decamerion Richardson
Decamerion Richardson at pick 162 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick165
Rnd5
Nathaniel Watson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Nathaniel Watson this early at No. 165. The roster fit checks out.
Pick169
Rnd5
Jaden Crumedy
They reached a country mile for Jaden Crumedy at the 169th pick, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick178
Rnd6
Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor at Round 6, Pick 3 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick186
Rnd6
Jordan Travis
They did well to land Jordan Travis in the 186th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick187
Rnd6
James Williams
James Williams slipping to the 187th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick195
Rnd6
Jaylon Carlies
Jaylon Carlies at the 195th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick197
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at Round 6, Pick 22 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe slid further than he should have, and pick No. 202 is lovely value for the edge rusher. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick218
Rnd6
Logan Lee
Logan Lee at slot 218 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219
Rnd6
Brevyn Spann-Ford
Value said wait; Brevyn Spann-Ford in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick225
Rnd7
Myles Murphy
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Myles Murphy well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick226
Rnd7
Kimani Vidal
Nice patience on Kimani Vidal, who had no business lasting to No. 226. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
