Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureC-
Daniels is the Cardinals' new face under center. Grade: D-.

Somebody took the Cardinals to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

So much rides on Jayden Daniels that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

The Nelson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 8th pick they get a long-term answer under center. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Laiatu Latu. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick17 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In slot 17 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick21 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick26 Rnd1 Jared Verse
Jared Verse in pick 26 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 27 they get a sticky cover corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick28 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In the 28th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
They read the board right and Kamren Kinchens was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 2. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick35 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in the 35th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
They paid sticker price for Tyler Guyton in the 44th pick, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 2 with a little surplus value in Brandon Dorlus. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
A tidy little value on Javon Bullard in No. 68, a step better than break-even. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick No. 71 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick85 Rnd3 Trey Benson
They did well to land Trey Benson in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Nothing to complain about; Tyler Davis went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick104 Rnd4 Audric Estime
They took Audric Estime at par in pick 104, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
A reasonable price with a little left over, Matt Goncalves in slot 110. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133 Rnd4 Cade Stover
Good price on Cade Stover in No. 133, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139 Rnd5 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at pick No. 139 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at Round 5, Pick 4 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. The roster fit checks out.
Pick182 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in the 182nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick186 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
Fair-plus on Sam Hartman, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick188 Rnd6 Steve Linton
By-the-book stuff, Steve Linton at pick 188 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Zion Nelson
Value with a capital V on Zion Nelson in the Round 7 slot, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick225 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
A tidy bit of business in slot 225, where Sheridan Jones graded well above the range. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick227 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver at pick 227 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
