Jl1000 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 Round 5, Pick 14 on Cam Miller, a name most had 102 spots down the list. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
Landing Grant that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Cameron Williams
In pick No. 16 they get an anchor for the offensive line, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at No. 47 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick78
Rnd3
Jayden Higgins
Fair-plus on Jayden Higgins, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113
Rnd4
Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick151
Rnd5
Cam Miller
They reached into another round for Cam Miller, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
