Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B-

FutureA+
The Cardinals lost the trade table, and the B- tells the story. The Cardinals clearly saw something nobody else did in Tommy Eichenberg, taking him 43 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. On value alone, Smith makes the weekend a net positive.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In the 4th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick21
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the 21st pick they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
They took Keon Coleman at par in slot 34, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
No edge and no loss on Kamren Kinchens in pick 66; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick70
Rnd3
Jack Sawyer
Good price on Jack Sawyer in Round 3, Pick 6, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick85
Rnd3
Tommy Eichenberg
They talked themselves into Tommy Eichenberg at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick102
Rnd4
Audric Estime
Audric Estime at pick No. 102 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick133
Rnd4
Cameron Ward
They went early on Cameron Ward in slot 133, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139
Rnd5
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in pick 139 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick163
Rnd5
Cedric Gray
A quiet steal in No. 163: Cedric Gray for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169
Rnd5
Gabe Hall
A reach for Gabe Hall in the Round 5 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick198
Rnd6
Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at the 198th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick223
Rnd7
Erick All
A conviction pick on Erick All at the 223rd overall pick that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226
Rnd7
Bryson Nesbit
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Bryson Nesbit at Round 7, Pick 6. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
