Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall A
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
Cowing should have been long gone. The Cardinals pounced, and earned a A.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jacob Cowing got past him. The Cardinals do not have to explain a thing at the 227th overall pick. This is how you run a draft, and the A reflects it.

They are betting Jones proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The phones were where this weekend was really won. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Bottom line, with Marvin Harrison Jr. leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a true top target at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick80 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
They paid sticker price for Christian Haynes in Round 3, Pick 16, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
No drama and no debate, Braden Fiske went about where he belonged in pick 89. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
A slide stopped in No. 104, with Tykee Smith worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick133 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
The board had Isaiah Adams higher than slot 133, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick137 Rnd5 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in the 137th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in the 140th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick188 Rnd6 DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter at the 188th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick225 Rnd7 BJ Mayes
BJ Mayes at Round 7, Pick 5 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
They robbed the room for Jacob Cowing here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick248 Rnd7 Jayson Jones
A wild overpay on Jayson Jones in pick No. 248, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
