Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB-
The Cardinals worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. The Cardinals spent real capital to be 182 picks early on Shaun Dolac, and the board is going to hold them to it. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
They banked enough surplus on Starks to cover a lot of smaller sins. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
In No. 31 they get a wrecking ball inside, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Wyatt Milum
By-the-book stuff, Wyatt Milum at the 34th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick36
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
No edge and no loss on Tyler Booker in pick No. 36; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick54
Rnd2
Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor in the 54th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick63
Rnd2
Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in Round 2, Pick 31 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick80
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo in slot 80 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick81
Rnd3
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at No. 81 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick86
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
They did well to land Carson Schwesinger in pick 86, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91
Rnd3
Cam Skattebo
They jumped the gun on Cam Skattebo, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick114
Rnd4
Aeneas Peebles
Aeneas Peebles at pick No. 114 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick118
Rnd4
Jaylin Noel
The board fumbled Jaylin Noel all the way to the 118th pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 119 for years; that is how good the value is. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick120
Rnd4
Will Howard
Will Howard slipping to Round 4, Pick 19 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick121
Rnd4
Billy Bowman Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Billy Bowman Jr.. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick122
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
They took Darius Alexander at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick123
Rnd4
Isaiah Bond
They robbed the room for Isaiah Bond here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125
Rnd4
Charles Grant
Steal is underselling it; Charles Grant at pick No. 125 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126
Rnd4
Bhayshul Tuten
Value said wait; Bhayshul Tuten in pick 126 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick127
Rnd4
Elijah Roberts
They left a pile of value on the table to take Elijah Roberts this early at the 127th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128
Rnd4
Shaun Dolac
A real head-scratcher, Shaun Dolac in the 128th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick129
Rnd4
Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin at Round 4, Pick 28 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
