Draft Grade — Cardinals

ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick No. 222 lands the Cardinals a B-, Phillips and all.

Thirty-one other rooms let Andru Phillips slide, and the Cardinals were the ones holding the card at the 222nd pick. Highway robbery.

They are betting Raym proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 27th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick35 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in No. 66 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick71 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland in the 71st pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A reach on Zak Zinter in slot 90; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Ty'Ron Hopper
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ty'Ron Hopper well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick137 Rnd5 Andrew Raym
A wild overpay on Andrew Raym in Round 5, Pick 1, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick161 Rnd5 Beau Brade
Beau Brade in slot 161 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick188 Rnd6 Logan Lee
Logan Lee at pick No. 188 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick222 Rnd7 Andru Phillips
Andru Phillips in the 222nd pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick224 Rnd7 Kalen King
They will replay Kalen King at Round 7, Pick 4 for years; that is how good the value is. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick241 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Somehow Myles Harden was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
