Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Cardinals.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Isaac Guerendo; the Cardinals did not wait, grabbing him 22 spots ahead at pick 106. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Cardinals indulged a want in Jackson while a need in quarterback, tight end and other spots stayed open.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 7 they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A quiet steal in slot 35: Cooper DeJean for less than the market said. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick38 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at Round 2, Pick 6 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Value with a capital V on Payton Wilson in No. 66, a genuine coup. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick71 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice slipping to the 71st pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in Round 3, Pick 27. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick104 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A surprising call. With quarterback, tight end and other spots still to address, they spent No. 104 on Khyree Jackson, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick106 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in pick 106 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick138 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Good price on Christian Jones in pick No. 138, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kitan Oladapo at the Round 5 slot is the proof. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
