FutureA+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Cardinals a B+. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Cardinals took Brevyn Spann-Ford at the Round 4 slot, roughly 146 spots before his name belonged.
However the rest shakes out, Goncalves at that price is a win they earned. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
The Cardinals paired the rookies with proven help, C.J. Stroud leading the way.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Rnd7
Andrew Coker
A real head-scratcher, Andrew Coker in pick 234 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick238
Rnd7
Drake Nugent
They left a pile of value on the table to take Drake Nugent this early at the 238th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick240
Rnd7
Anim Dankwah
Anim Dankwah at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick242
Rnd7
Jarrett Kingston
Value said wait; Jarrett Kingston in slot 242 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick247
Rnd7
X'Zauvea Gadlin
They talked themselves into X'Zauvea Gadlin at No. 247, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick252
Rnd7
Garret Greenfield
Taking Garret Greenfield in Round 7, Pick 32 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253
Rnd7
Tarheeb Still
A quiet steal in the 253rd overall pick: Tarheeb Still for less than the market said. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
