Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureA+
The Cardinals did the homework and the board rewarded it: A-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Troy Omeire at No. 225, a reach of 39 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The Cardinals clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 11 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick20 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick 20 they get a potential shutdown corner. More want than need.
Pick47 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A straight-up fair deal on Kingsley Suamataia at the 47th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick66 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They liked Cooper Beebe enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 66. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick82 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
No edge and no loss on Michael Hall Jr. in the 82nd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick89 Rnd3 Mohamed Kamara
They reached a country mile for Mohamed Kamara at the Round 3 slot, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick133 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
This one needs a full-page explanation: Braelon Allen in the 133rd overall pick, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick140 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Fair-plus on Malik Mustapha, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick188 Rnd6 David Ugwoegbu
A real head-scratcher, David Ugwoegbu in the Round 6 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick225 Rnd7 Troy Omeire
Troy Omeire at the 225th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick227 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
They let Daequan Hardy come to them and pounced at Round 7, Pick 7. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
