Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals cashed the board's mistake on Gould: B.

The Cardinals' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it.

Getting Gould where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The Davis reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In pick 4 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at No. 27 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They took Jordan Morgan at par in the 35th pick, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
Value with a capital V on Braden Fiske in pick No. 66, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
A tidy bit of business in the 71st overall pick, where Bralen Trice graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick90 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A tidy little value on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in slot 90, a step better than break-even. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick104 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Caelen Carson in pick 104. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick138 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
A wild overpay on Isaiah Davis in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick162 Rnd5 Anthony Gould
Anthony Gould at No. 162 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
