FutureB
The Cardinals worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cardinals started one anyway for Austin Booker, 59 picks ahead of schedule. The bottom line is a respectable B.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Dial. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
The veteran additions, Deebo Samuel chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick35
Rnd2
Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey in the 35th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick48
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
A slide stopped in pick 48, with Tyler Guyton worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick52
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
A wild overpay on Braden Fiske in slot 52, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick66
Rnd3
Adisa Isaac
A reasonable price with a little left over, Adisa Isaac in pick No. 66. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
By-the-book stuff, Christian Haynes at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick79
Rnd3
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in pick No. 79 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90
Rnd3
Malachi Corley
Value with a capital V on Malachi Corley in pick 90, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick105
Rnd4
Austin Booker
They reached into another round for Austin Booker, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick115
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
Michael Pratt slipping to Round 4, Pick 15 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick116
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ben Sinnott this early at the Round 4 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick117
Rnd4
McKinnley Jackson
Somehow McKinnley Jackson was still sitting there in the 117th pick, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick120
Rnd4
Sione Vaki
A real head-scratcher, Sione Vaki in the 120th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick137
Rnd5
Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade in slot 137 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick148
Rnd5
Logan Lee
No drama and no debate, Logan Lee went about where he belonged in No. 148. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick152
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
They reached a country mile for Cody Schrader at Round 5, Pick 16, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick166
Rnd5
Renardo Green
Renardo Green at pick No. 166 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick175
Rnd5
Andrew Raym
A big swing on Andrew Raym at pick 175, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick179
Rnd6
Frank Gore Jr.
They took Frank Gore Jr. at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick188
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
A straight-up fair deal on Michael Barrett at the 188th pick, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick195
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
This one needs a full-page explanation: Gabe Hall in slot 195, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick196
Rnd6
Austin Stogner
A reach for Austin Stogner in the 196th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick222
Rnd7
Ethan Driskell
Ethan Driskell at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick224
Rnd7
Julian Pearl
Julian Pearl in the 224th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick227
Rnd7
Jha'Quan Jackson
No edge and no loss on Jha'Quan Jackson in pick No. 227; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick234
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Marcellas Dial in pick 234, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick235
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at slot 235 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick252
Rnd7
Zion Logue
A premium they did not need to pay, Zion Logue a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
