Call it larceny. Kobe King sat on the board until pick 153, and the Cardinals did not need to be asked twice.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Milum pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.16 · Pick 16 · Wyatt Milum · OT · rank 36
In No. 16 they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Elic Ayomanor · WR · rank 57
They liked Elic Ayomanor enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 47. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Aeneas Peebles · DL · rank 85
They paid sticker price for Aeneas Peebles in slot 78, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
R4.13 · Pick 114 · Jermari Harris · CB · rank 100
Value with a capital V on Jermari Harris in the Round 4 slot, a genuine coup. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.14 · Pick 153 · Kobe King · LB · rank 133
Kobe King in pick 153 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
