Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Cardinals a B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Cardinals would have aced it. Shaun Dolac at No. 176 is 163 spots clear of where he belonged. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Carter.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 27th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
No edge and no loss on Jack Sawyer in pick 33; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick34 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Derrick Harmon at slot 34 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick35 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in the 35th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to pick No. 38, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick40 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at No. 40 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick78 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor at slot 78 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick85 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
Value with a capital V on Cameron Williams in pick 85, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger in the 86th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
They took Cam Skattebo at par in Round 3, Pick 30, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick97 Rnd3 Kyle McCord
A wild overpay on Kyle McCord in pick No. 97, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick115 Rnd4 Xavier Restrepo
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Xavier Restrepo at the Round 4 slot is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick116 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
They did well to land Billy Bowman Jr. in the 116th pick, just ahead of his grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick124 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
A premium they did not need to pay, Mello Dotson a notch or two before his time. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick125 Rnd4 Willie Lampkin
They reached into another round for Willie Lampkin, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick129 Rnd4 Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson at the 129th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick135 Rnd4 Nick Nash
They liked Nick Nash enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 4, Pick 33. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick136 Rnd4 Bhayshul Tuten
They paid up for Bhayshul Tuten at the 136th pick when waiting would have done the job. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick155 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
A reasonable price with a little left over, Luke Kandra in pick No. 155. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick158 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
They went early on Chase Lundt in the Round 5 slot, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick176 Rnd5 Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac at pick 176 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200 Rnd6 Howard Cross III
Value said wait; Howard Cross III in slot 200 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jalen Travis
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jalen Travis in No. 210, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
