Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueD+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Cardinals won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

The Cardinals put a flag in the ground for David Ugwoegbu, 167 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Williams.

The Ugwoegbu pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with tight end still on the board. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In slot 6 they get a disruptor off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick28 Rnd1 Ruke Orhorhoro
In the 28th pick they get a disruptive interior force, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Nelson Ceaser
Nelson Ceaser in pick 40 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66 Rnd3 David Ugwoegbu
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, David Ugwoegbu adds an OLB-EDGE and leaves tight end untouched.
Pick71 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 71 with a little surplus value in Javon Bullard. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick90 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sedrick Van Pran. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
They reached into another round for Javion Cohen, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick108 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
The board had Blake Fisher higher than pick 108, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick133 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at Round 4, Pick 33 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick143 Rnd5 J.J. Weaver
A big swing on J.J. Weaver at pick No. 143, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick188 Rnd6 Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
They took Taulia Tagovailoa at par in the 223rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Isaiah Williams
You do not let a wide receiver like Isaiah Williams reach the 225th pick and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Myles Jones
Circle this one: Myles Jones at slot 233 is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
