TradesF
FutureB
The Cardinals lost the trade table, and the D tells the story. There is reaching, and then there is Shaun Dolac at slot 165. The Cardinals jumped the board by 127 and dared it to prove them wrong.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The Ransom steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
JT Tuimoloau
In slot 27 they get juice off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
A reach on Azareye'h Thomas in pick 47; the board had better options right there. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick56
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
A straight-up fair deal on Alfred Collins at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick67
Rnd3
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
They reached a country mile for Antwaun Powell-Ryland at pick No. 67, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick78
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at No. 78 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick81
Rnd3
Hollin Pierce
A wild overpay on Hollin Pierce in the 81st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jayden Higgins
A slide stopped in the 87th overall pick, with Jayden Higgins worth more than the price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
They read the board right and Omarr Norman-Lott was the payoff at No. 88. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo slipping to slot 97 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick105
Rnd4
Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson slid further than he should have, and the 105th pick is lovely value for the wide receiver. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at pick 107 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick109
Rnd4
Rylie Mills
This one needs a full-page explanation: Rylie Mills in pick No. 109, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick112
Rnd4
Chase Lundt
They reached into another round for Chase Lundt, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick113
Rnd4
Oluwafemi Oladejo
A real head-scratcher, Oluwafemi Oladejo in Round 4, Pick 12 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick114
Rnd4
Dylan Fairchild
Taking Dylan Fairchild in the 114th pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick117
Rnd4
Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton at Round 4, Pick 16 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121
Rnd4
Carson Schwesinger
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Carson Schwesinger in the 121st overall pick, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick123
Rnd4
Kevin Jennings
Kevin Jennings in pick No. 123 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick125
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Willie Lampkin well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel in slot 126 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick135
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
Circle this one: Malachi Moore at No. 135 is a fall that decides a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick138
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
The board had cheaper options than Pat Bryant at the Round 5 slot, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139
Rnd5
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in slot 139 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick145
Rnd5
Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater in the Round 5 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick148
Rnd5
Nick Nash
By-the-book stuff, Nick Nash at the 148th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick151
Rnd5
Jay Higgins
A tidy bit of business in Round 5, Pick 14, where Jay Higgins graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick152
Rnd5
Lathan Ransom
They robbed the room for Lathan Ransom here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick157
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
Value with a capital V on Oronde Gadsden II in pick No. 157, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick160
Rnd5
Jahvaree Ritzie
Jahvaree Ritzie at pick 160 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick161
Rnd5
Cody Simon
Cody Simon in the 161st pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick162
Rnd5
Addison West
Value said wait; Addison West in slot 162 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164
Rnd5
Jack Kiser
They talked themselves into Jack Kiser at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick165
Rnd5
Shaun Dolac
They left a pile of value on the table to take Shaun Dolac this early at No. 165. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick166
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
The board fumbled Jonah Monheim all the way to the 166th pick, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 168th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169
Rnd5
Ricky White III
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ricky White III. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170
Rnd5
Tosh Baker
A big swing on Tosh Baker at pick No. 170, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick172
Rnd5
Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis at Round 5, Pick 35 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick173
Rnd5
Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in slot 173 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jacob Parrish
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jacob Parrish well ahead of where he belonged. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick175
Rnd5
Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker in pick No. 175 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick179
Rnd6
Tonka Hemingway
A real head-scratcher, Tonka Hemingway in pick 179 is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181
Rnd6
Connor Colby
No edge and no loss on Connor Colby in the 181st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186
Rnd6
Maxen Hook
A big swing on Maxen Hook at the 186th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick188
Rnd6
Simeon Barrow Jr.
Nice patience on Simeon Barrow Jr., who had no business lasting to Round 6, Pick 13. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189
Rnd6
Ty Hamilton
Value said wait; Ty Hamilton in No. 189 says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick191
Rnd6
Theo Wease Jr.
They reached into another round for Theo Wease Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick195
Rnd6
RJ Harvey
You do not let a running back like RJ Harvey reach the 195th pick and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
