The Cardinals let Williams fall into their laps, and walked away with a F. The Cardinals looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took J.J. Weaver at slot 254 regardless, 57 picks early.
The Williams steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.
That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The James pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback.
It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with quarterback still staring back at them.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th pick they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the 27th overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
They read the board right and Tyler Guyton was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick50
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
They took Braden Fiske at par in Round 2, Pick 18, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick66
Rnd3
T.J. Tampa
A slide stopped in Round 3, Pick 2, with T.J. Tampa worth more than the price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick71
Rnd3
Roman Wilson
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 71 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
A tidy bit of business in slot 79, where Christian Haynes graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jaylen Wright
Value with a capital V on Jaylen Wright in the 90th pick, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick97
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They let Dadrion Taylor-Demerson come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick103
Rnd4
DJ James
A want over a need in the 103rd overall pick: DJ James adds a cornerback while quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick108
Rnd4
Maason Smith
A curious use of pick 108. Quarterback needed the pick; a DT-EDGE in Maason Smith did not.
Pick114
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ben Sinnott. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
A conviction pick on Mohamed Kamara at pick 115 that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick122
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
No edge and no loss on Cedric Gray in No. 122; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
They left a pile of value on the table to take Justin Eboigbe this early at pick No. 126. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
By-the-book stuff, Jacob Cowing at the 137th pick squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick142
Rnd5
Isaiah Adams
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Isaiah Adams in the Round 5 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick148
Rnd5
Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in the 148th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick155
Rnd5
Grayson Murphy
They paid sticker price for Grayson Murphy in Round 5, Pick 19, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick160
Rnd5
Anthony Gould
Anthony Gould in slot 160 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick161
Rnd5
Jalyx Hunt
They paid a round early for Jalyx Hunt in the 161st pick, more than the board wanted. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick170
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
No drama and no debate, Sione Vaki went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 34. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick171
Rnd5
Delmar Glaze
Delmar Glaze in pick No. 171 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick185
Rnd6
Steele Chambers
A straight-up fair deal on Steele Chambers at pick 185, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick186
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
A reach for Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in the 186th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick193
Rnd6
Andrew Coker
They reached a country mile for Andrew Coker at slot 193, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick196
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
They talked themselves into Gabe Hall at No. 196, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick202
Rnd6
Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick205
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Kamal Hadden in Round 6, Pick 30, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick208
Rnd6
JD Bertrand
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on JD Bertrand. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick210
Rnd6
Julian Pearl
Julian Pearl at pick 210 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick212
Rnd6
Myles Murphy
Myles Murphy in slot 212 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick214
Rnd6
Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the 214th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick224
Rnd7
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick226
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan in the 226th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick237
Rnd7
Brevyn Spann-Ford
They paid sticker price for Brevyn Spann-Ford in pick No. 237, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick238
Rnd7
Matthew Jones
They liked Matthew Jones enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 7, Pick 18. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick243
Rnd7
Myles Cole
Steal is underselling it; Myles Cole at pick No. 243 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick247
Rnd7
Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams in the 247th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick254
Rnd7
J.J. Weaver
A big swing on J.J. Weaver at No. 254, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick256
Rnd7
Jarrett Kingston
Jarrett Kingston in slot 256 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.
Pick257
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
No edge and no loss on Marcellas Dial in the 257th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
