Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
C
ValueB-
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureF
The Cardinals won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: C. The Cardinals went off the board in a big way for Decamerion Richardson, 80 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.
The Milton III pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell in the 27th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick28
Rnd1
Laiatu Latu
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a problem off the edge, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick29
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In pick No. 29 they get a long-term starter on the line, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35
Rnd2
Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick41
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
The board had cheaper options than Braden Fiske at slot 41, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick58
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
They read the board right and Cooper Beebe was the payoff at pick 58. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66
Rnd3
Ruke Orhorhoro
No edge and no loss on Ruke Orhorhoro in the 66th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick67
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
They let Payton Wilson come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68
Rnd3
Jaylen Wright
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaylen Wright. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick69
Rnd3
Jermaine Burton
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jermaine Burton at the 69th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
They paid sticker price for Devontez Walker in pick 70, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
By-the-book stuff, Sedrick Van Pran at slot 71 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick72
Rnd3
Cade Stover
They took Cade Stover at par in Round 3, Pick 8, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick73
Rnd3
Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland at No. 73 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick74
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk at pick No. 74 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick76
Rnd3
T'Vondre Sweat
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick80
Rnd3
Maason Smith
Maason Smith at slot 80 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick81
Rnd3
Ben Sinnott
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ben Sinnott well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick83
Rnd3
Malik Washington
Malik Washington in pick 83 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87
Rnd3
Max Melton
A slide stopped in No. 87, with Max Melton worth more than the price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick90
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
They barely believed it either: Kiran Amegadjie still on the board at Round 3, Pick 27. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
They went early on Zak Zinter in the 96th pick, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick97
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in pick 97 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick98
Rnd3
Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at the Round 3 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99
Rnd3
Austin Booker
Austin Booker at slot 99 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick104
Rnd4
DeWayne Carter
Nothing to complain about; DeWayne Carter went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108
Rnd4
Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy is a better player than the 108th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick109
Rnd4
Trevor Keegan
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trevor Keegan. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick115
Rnd4
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at the 115th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119
Rnd4
Cody Schrader
A big swing on Cody Schrader at No. 119, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick120
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
A reach for Mohamed Kamara in the 120th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray slid further than he should have, and slot 123 is lovely value for the linebacker. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick126
Rnd4
Beau Brade
Beau Brade at the 126th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick128
Rnd4
Jamari Thrash
No drama and no debate, Jamari Thrash went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick129
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Taking Leonard Taylor III in pick 129 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick138
Rnd5
Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt in Round 5, Pick 2 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick140
Rnd5
Brandon Coleman
They talked themselves into Brandon Coleman at pick No. 140, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick143
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
A real head-scratcher, Tanor Bortolini in No. 143 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick145
Rnd5
Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in Round 5, Pick 9 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick148
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 148, where Roger Rosengarten graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing in slot 149 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153
Rnd5
Anthony Gould
Anthony Gould at pick 153 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick154
Rnd5
Justin Eboigbe
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Justin Eboigbe. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick155
Rnd5
Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the 155th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick162
Rnd5
Isaiah Davis
Fair-plus on Isaiah Davis, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick164
Rnd5
Tahj Washington
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tahj Washington this early at No. 164. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169
Rnd5
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
This one needs a full-page explanation: Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in pick No. 169, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick178
Rnd6
Frank Gore Jr.
They reached a country mile for Frank Gore Jr. at Round 6, Pick 3, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick179
Rnd6
Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at pick 179 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick180
Rnd6
Brennan Jackson
Somehow Brennan Jackson was still sitting there in No. 180, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at the 185th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick186
Rnd6
Eric Watts
Eric Watts at slot 186 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick191
Rnd6
Cedric Johnson
Cedric Johnson in the 191st pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick194
Rnd6
Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick196
Rnd6
Drake Nugent
A conviction pick on Drake Nugent at the 196th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick201
Rnd6
Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at Round 6, Pick 26 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick205
Rnd6
Andrew Raym
Value said wait; Andrew Raym in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick209
Rnd6
Keaton Bills
They reached into another round for Keaton Bills, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick212
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
A cornerback of that caliber at pick 212 is the definition of value, full stop. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick213
Rnd6
Logan Lee
A straight-up fair deal on Logan Lee at pick No. 213, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick214
Rnd6
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
They took Zion Tupuola-Fetui at par in slot 214, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217
Rnd6
Jowon Briggs
A wild overpay on Jowon Briggs in the 217th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick222
Rnd7
Andrew Coker
Value said wait; Andrew Coker in No. 222 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick224
Rnd7
Steele Chambers
Steal is underselling it; Steele Chambers at pick 224 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226
Rnd7
Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy in the 226th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
They reached a country mile for Jawhar Jordan at the 236th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick237
Rnd7
Keilan Robinson
Keilan Robinson in Round 7, Pick 17 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238
Rnd7
Decamerion Richardson
A wild overpay on Decamerion Richardson in slot 238, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick239
Rnd7
Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in the Round 7 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244
Rnd7
Matthew Jones
This one needs a full-page explanation: Matthew Jones in pick No. 244, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick249
Rnd7
Jarrett Kingston
A real head-scratcher, Jarrett Kingston in the 249th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254
Rnd7
X'Zauvea Gadlin
They talked themselves into X'Zauvea Gadlin at pick No. 254, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick256
Rnd7
Joe Milton III
Circle this one: Joe Milton III at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
