Daddygaff DRAFTING FOR THECardinals
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cardinals. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cardinals spent the Round 4 slot on Ty Robinson, a name most had 47 spots down the list. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
That Gabriel pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
James Pearce Jr. at the 16th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick47
Rnd2
Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick78
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger in Round 3, Pick 14 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115
Rnd4
Ty Robinson
They reached a country mile for Ty Robinson at slot 115, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick152
Rnd5
Dillon Gabriel
Dillon Gabriel at No. 152 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick225
Rnd7
Robert Longerbeam
They read the board right and Robert Longerbeam was the payoff at the 225th overall pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
