Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Dart is the Cardinals' new face under center. Grade: B+.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Shaun Dolac at slot 115 is 208 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

So much rides on Jaxson Dart that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They banked enough surplus on Howard to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
In the 26th overall pick they get juice off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the Round 1 slot they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. A real need, handled.
Pick28 Rnd1 Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku in pick No. 28 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick29 Rnd1 Tyler Booker
In pick 29 they get a blindside protector, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a go-to option on the outside, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick31 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
A quiet steal in No. 31: Nick Emmanwori for less than the market said. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick32 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
In the 32nd pick they get a franchise quarterback. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 Bradyn Swinson
A real head-scratcher, Bradyn Swinson in Round 2, Pick 8 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick41 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at No. 41 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick42 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at pick 42 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick43 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at pick No. 43 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick44 Rnd2 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at slot 44 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Antwaun Powell-Ryland. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
Value said wait; Cam Skattebo in pick No. 72 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick73 Rnd3 Kaimon Rucker
A big swing on Kaimon Rucker at the 73rd overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick74 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
Nothing to complain about; Cameron Williams went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75 Rnd3 Deone Walker
They jumped the gun on Deone Walker, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
Pick83 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Nice patience on Darien Porter, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 19. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick84 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A reach on Darius Alexander in pick 84; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick85 Rnd3 Ty Robinson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ty Robinson this early at No. 85. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick86 Rnd3 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. in slot 86 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick87 Rnd3 Tai Felton
They paid a round early for Tai Felton in Round 3, Pick 23, more than the board wanted. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Elijah Roberts
They reached into another round for Elijah Roberts, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick89 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Elijah Arroyo at pick No. 89. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick90 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A straight-up fair deal on Charles Grant at No. 90, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick103 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
No edge and no loss on Dylan Fairchild in the 103rd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at pick 105 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick113 Rnd4 Willie Lampkin
A wild overpay on Willie Lampkin in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick115 Rnd4 Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac at the 115th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick117 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Baron in slot 117, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick120 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer at pick No. 120 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Logan Brown
They reached a country mile for Logan Brown at the 121st overall pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Circle this one: Tez Johnson at No. 126 is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Tory Horton
They barely believed it either: Tory Horton still on the board at pick 127. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick128 Rnd4 Bhayshul Tuten
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Bhayshul Tuten well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick129 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at the 129th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick139 Rnd5 Will Howard
A quarterback of that caliber at slot 139 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick140 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at Round 5, Pick 2 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
