Overall

NeedC+

FutureD-
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B-. The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Cardinals reached some 118 spots for Andrew Coker, and value like that does not grow back. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.
The Pratt steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
The Cardinals clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In the 32nd overall pick they get a building block for the line at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell slipping to slot 35 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick39
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at pick 39 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick40
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
A premium they did not need to pay, Braden Fiske a notch or two before his time. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick41
Rnd2
Malachi Corley
A reach on Malachi Corley in Round 2, Pick 9; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick42
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at the 42nd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick59
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in pick 59 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick60
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in pick No. 60 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick63
Rnd2
Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in No. 63 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick64
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
No edge and no loss on Ruke Orhorhoro in the 64th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66
Rnd3
Cade Stover
They went early on Cade Stover in slot 66, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jaylen Wright
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaylen Wright. The roster fit checks out.
Pick68
Rnd3
Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at the 68th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick71
Rnd3
T.J. Tampa
Taking T.J. Tampa in Round 3, Pick 7 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick72
Rnd3
Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac at pick 72 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75
Rnd3
Malik Washington
Malik Washington at Round 3, Pick 11 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick81
Rnd3
Jermaine Burton
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jermaine Burton in No. 81, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick83
Rnd3
Isaac Guerendo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Isaac Guerendo well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick84
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
A straight-up fair deal on Dominick Puni at the 84th pick, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick86
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
A quiet steal in pick No. 86: Mike Sainristil for less than the market said. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick88
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
They did well to land Michael Hall Jr. in the 88th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick90
Rnd3
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in slot 90 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick91
Rnd3
Cedric Gray
A big swing on Cedric Gray at pick 91, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick92
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
A conviction pick on Zak Zinter at slot 92 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick94
Rnd3
Maason Smith
Maason Smith at Round 3, Pick 31 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95
Rnd3
Ben Sinnott
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ben Sinnott. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick96
Rnd3
Max Melton
Steal is underselling it; Max Melton at the 96th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick99
Rnd3
DJ James
The board fumbled DJ James all the way to the 99th pick, and they scooped it up. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick101
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
The board had cheaper options than Javon Solomon at No. 101, and it noticed. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick117
Rnd4
Christian Mahogany
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick118
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at the 118th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126
Rnd4
Roger Rosengarten
They jumped the gun on Roger Rosengarten, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127
Rnd4
McKinnley Jackson
Nothing to complain about; McKinnley Jackson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick128
Rnd4
Trevor Keegan
A reach for Trevor Keegan in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick131
Rnd4
Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at No. 131 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick144
Rnd5
Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at Round 5, Pick 8 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick146
Rnd5
Javon Foster
Circle this one: Javon Foster at slot 146 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick147
Rnd5
Delmar Glaze
They talked themselves into Delmar Glaze at pick No. 147, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at pick 148 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick152
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tanor Bortolini in pick No. 152, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick154
Rnd5
Logan Lee
A wild overpay on Logan Lee in the 154th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick158
Rnd5
Gabe Hall
They left a pile of value on the table to take Gabe Hall this early at the 158th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick162
Rnd5
Andrew Coker
A real head-scratcher, Andrew Coker in Round 5, Pick 26 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick164
Rnd5
Brandon Coleman
Brandon Coleman at slot 164 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
No drama and no debate, Kamal Hadden went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick171
Rnd5
Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson in No. 171 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick172
Rnd5
Hunter Nourzad
Hunter Nourzad at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick173
Rnd5
Kimani Vidal
They reached into another round for Kimani Vidal, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick174
Rnd5
Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington in Round 5, Pick 38 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175
Rnd5
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in pick No. 175 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick176
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at No. 176 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick178
Rnd6
JD Bertrand
Value said wait; JD Bertrand in slot 178 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick179
Rnd6
Layden Robinson
Layden Robinson at the 179th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick182
Rnd6
Brevyn Spann-Ford
They reached a country mile for Brevyn Spann-Ford at the 182nd overall pick, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick184
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
They robbed the room for Justin Eboigbe here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick185
Rnd6
Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan in No. 185 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick186
Rnd6
Eric Watts
This one needs a full-page explanation: Eric Watts in Round 6, Pick 11, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick187
Rnd6
Sam Hartman
They reached into another round for Sam Hartman, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick188
Rnd6
Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy is a better player than pick 188 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick192
Rnd6
Ro Torrence
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Ro Torrence graded well above the range. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick194
Rnd6
Jha'Quan Jackson
Nice patience on Jha'Quan Jackson, who had no business lasting to slot 194. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick195
Rnd6
Caedan Wallace
A real head-scratcher, Caedan Wallace in pick No. 195 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198
Rnd6
Andrew Raym
Value said wait; Andrew Raym in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick201
Rnd6
Jaden Crumedy
Jaden Crumedy at pick 201 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204
Rnd6
Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at pick No. 204 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick205
Rnd6
Marcus Harris
They will replay Marcus Harris at slot 205 for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick208
Rnd6
Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor in No. 208 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Fabien Lovett reach Round 6, Pick 36 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick214
Rnd6
Michael Pratt
They barely believed it either: Michael Pratt still on the board at the 214th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick215
Rnd6
Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. in the 215th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick216
Rnd6
Edefuan Ulofoshio

Pick220
Rnd6
Tyrice Knight
They talked themselves into Tyrice Knight at pick 220, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick221
Rnd7
Keith Randolph Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in slot 221 with a little surplus value in Keith Randolph Jr.. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick225
Rnd7
Johnny Dixon
Somehow Johnny Dixon was still sitting there in No. 225, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick226
Rnd7
Julian Pearl
Circle this one: Julian Pearl at pick No. 226 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick227
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Nathaniel Watson in Round 7, Pick 7. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick228
Rnd7
Frank Gore Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Frank Gore Jr. at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick229
Rnd7
Trente Jones
Trente Jones in the 229th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick232
Rnd7
Keaton Bills

Pick234
Rnd7
KT Leveston
They paid up for KT Leveston at slot 234 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick235
Rnd7
Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in the 235th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick237
Rnd7
Sheridan Jones
A cornerback of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 17 is the definition of value, full stop. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick238
Rnd7
Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in the Round 7 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick239
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
They took Marcellas Dial at par in pick 239, which is nothing to complain about. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick242
Rnd7
Jordan Magee

Pick247
Rnd7
LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in pick No. 247 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick248

Fair-plus on Josh Proctor, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick249
Rnd7
Josiah Ezirim
