Nobody dealt better than the Cardinals this weekend: B+. Boards are made to be trusted, and the Cardinals shredded theirs for Cody Schrader. He came off 103 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
On value alone, Bell makes the weekend a net positive. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick33
Rnd2
Cade Stover
Cade Stover in No. 33 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick34
Rnd2

Pick35
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall

Pick36
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
The board had cheaper options than Xavier Worthy at pick No. 36, and it noticed. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.

A conviction pick on Keon Coleman at pick 37 that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick38
Rnd2
Malachi Corley
They jumped the gun on Malachi Corley, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick39

Pick40
Rnd2
Trey Benson
They talked themselves into Trey Benson at the Round 2 slot, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick41
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy slid further than he should have, and the 41st overall pick is lovely value for the quarterback. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick42
Rnd2
Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean in No. 42 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick46
Rnd2
Terrion Arnold
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Terrion Arnold in Round 2, Pick 14, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick47
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in the 47th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick48

They paid a round early for T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
Pick54
Rnd2
Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at Round 2, Pick 22 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick55
Rnd2
Mekhi Wingo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mekhi Wingo well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick59
Rnd2
Maason Smith
A big swing on Maason Smith at slot 59, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick61
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
The board had Chris Braswell higher than No. 61, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Circle this one: Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick 63 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick66
Rnd3
Jonathon Brooks
Steal is underselling it; Jonathon Brooks at the 66th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick67
Rnd3
Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac at the 67th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick68
Rnd3

A premium they did not need to pay, Brandon Dorlus a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69
Rnd3

Pick70

Javon Baker in the 70th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick71
Rnd3
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at No. 71 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72
Rnd3
DeWayne Carter
Value said wait; DeWayne Carter in Round 3, Pick 8 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick74
Rnd3
Mohamed Kamara
They left a pile of value on the table to take Mohamed Kamara this early at pick No. 74. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy

Pick76
Rnd3
Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at the Round 3 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78
Rnd3
Cole Bishop
A reach on Cole Bishop in pick 78; the board had better options right there. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick79
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
They read the board right and Cooper Beebe was the payoff at the 79th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick82
Rnd3

Pick83
Rnd3
Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis at slot 83 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick85
Rnd3
Kamari Lassiter
Kamari Lassiter at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick86
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in the 86th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick89
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
You do not let an offensive lineman like Kiran Amegadjie reach pick No. 89 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at Round 3, Pick 27 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick94
Rnd3
Malik Washington
A slide stopped in pick No. 94, with Malik Washington worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96
Rnd3
Patrick Paul

Pick97
Rnd3
Jonah Elliss

Pick100
Rnd3
Kris Abrams-Draine

Pick101
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
They paid up for Javon Solomon at pick 101 when waiting would have done the job. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick103
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
They went early on Cedric Gray in the 103rd pick, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in No. 104 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick105
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
No drama and no debate, Zak Zinter went about where he belonged in the 105th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick106
Rnd4

Pick116
Rnd4
Tyler Davis

Pick117
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
A reach for Jalyx Hunt in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick121
Rnd4
Calen Bullock

Pick122
Rnd4
DJ James

Pick123
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
They took Brenden Rice at par in pick 123, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126
Rnd4
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick127
Rnd4

Pick152

Pick153

Pick231
