Hclam22 DRAFTING FOR THECardinals
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cardinals. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cardinals left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
The Harmon pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. If Cornelius pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Matthew Golden
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47
Rnd2
Derrick Harmon
A tidy bit of business in the 47th pick, where Derrick Harmon graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick78
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
Value with a capital V on Quinshon Judkins in pick 78, a genuine coup. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick115
Rnd4
Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in slot 115 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick152
Rnd5
Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at pick No. 152 is a conviction pick that outran the value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick225
Rnd7
Jonas Sanker
Nice patience on Jonas Sanker, who had no business lasting to the 225th overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
