Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
D-
ValueC+
NeedB-
TradesF
FutureC
The Cardinals got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-. The Cardinals treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 211 on Frank Crum a full 109 spots early. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Landing Cooper that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In the 27th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that.
Pick35
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
They took Darius Robinson at par in pick No. 35, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick41
Rnd2
Christian Haynes
Value said wait; Christian Haynes in slot 41 says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick48
Rnd2
Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in pick 48 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick58
Rnd2
Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley at the 58th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66
Rnd3
Kris Jenkins
They will replay Kris Jenkins at the 66th pick for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick71
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in slot 71 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick72
Rnd3
Edgerrin Cooper
The board fumbled Edgerrin Cooper all the way to the 72nd overall pick, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
They let Jaden Hicks come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick91
Rnd3
Marshawn Kneeland
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marshawn Kneeland. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick105
Rnd4
Renardo Green
Renardo Green in No. 105 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick114
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ben Sinnott well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick115
Rnd4
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at pick 115 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick117
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
They talked themselves into Michael Pratt at slot 117, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick127
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A quiet steal in the 127th pick: Javon Solomon for less than the market said. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick130
Rnd4
Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki at the Round 4 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick135
Rnd4
Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in the 135th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick137
Rnd5
Jaylin Simpson
They paid sticker price for Jaylin Simpson in No. 137, and that is fine. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick152
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
They reached into another round for Tanor Bortolini, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick161
Rnd5
Tahj Washington
A big swing on Tahj Washington at pick 161, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168
Rnd5
Eric Watts
Eric Watts at Round 5, Pick 32 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick170
Rnd5
Gabe Hall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Gabe Hall. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171
Rnd5
Walter Rouse
No drama and no debate, Walter Rouse went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 35. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick178
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They left a pile of value on the table to take Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint this early at the 178th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick187
Rnd6
Javion Cohen
You do not let an offensive lineman like Javion Cohen reach slot 187 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick188
Rnd6
Kimani Vidal
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kimani Vidal in No. 188, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick189
Rnd6
Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick 189 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick195
Rnd6
Andrew Coker
Andrew Coker in pick No. 195 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick204
Rnd6
JD Bertrand
No edge and no loss on JD Bertrand in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick208
Rnd6
Brevyn Spann-Ford
They reached a country mile for Brevyn Spann-Ford at Round 6, Pick 33, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick211
Rnd6
Frank Crum
A real head-scratcher, Frank Crum in pick 211 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216
Rnd6
Myles Cole
A straight-up fair deal on Myles Cole at pick No. 216, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick222
Rnd7
Josh Proctor
Fair-plus on Josh Proctor, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick224
Rnd7
Tyrice Knight
A slide stopped in slot 224, with Tyrice Knight worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick234
Rnd7
Carter Bradley
A wild overpay on Carter Bradley in No. 234, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick240
Rnd7
Decamerion Richardson
A real head-scratcher, Decamerion Richardson in the 240th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick241
Rnd7
Deantre Prince
Deantre Prince at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick253
Rnd7
X'Zauvea Gadlin
X'Zauvea Gadlin in slot 253 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick254
Rnd7
Kedon Slovis
Value said wait; Kedon Slovis in the 254th overall pick says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick257
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial at No. 257 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
