Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cardinals for Henderson: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: TreVeyon Henderson, Round 4, Pick 16, roughly 59 picks past where he belonged.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Every board in the league had Sawyer lower, and that gap is the story. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In pick 17 they get a problem off the edge, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47 Rnd2 Armand Membou
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Armand Membou. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
A straight-up fair deal on Jalen Milroe at the 78th pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick81 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick113 Rnd4 Elic Ayomanor
Nice patience on Elic Ayomanor, who had no business lasting to slot 113. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick117 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Taking TreVeyon Henderson in No. 117 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick151 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Steal is underselling it; Lathan Ransom at Round 5, Pick 14 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
