Boards are made to be trusted, and the Cardinals shredded theirs for Kevin Jennings. He came off 84 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
A reasonable price with a little left over, Walter Nolen in the Round 1 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Grey Zabel at pick 47 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
They took Aeneas Peebles at par in No. 78, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Logan Brown at pick No. 114 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
A wild overpay on Kevin Jennings in Round 5, Pick 14, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
