Reg DRAFTING FOR THECardinals
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B-
ValueC+
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cardinals a B-. The Cardinals went off the board in a big way for T.J. Sanders, 44 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.
Landing Allar that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Kelvin Banks Jr.
No edge and no loss on Kelvin Banks Jr. in No. 10; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick41
Rnd2
T.J. Sanders
This one needs a full-page explanation: T.J. Sanders in the 41st pick, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72
Rnd3
Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick108
Rnd4
Drew Allar
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Drew Allar in Round 4, Pick 7, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
They jumped the gun on Jonah Monheim, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186
Rnd6
Ricky White III
A straight-up fair deal on Ricky White III at pick 186, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
