Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueC
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureA+
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+. The Cardinals spent real capital to be 108 picks early on Decamerion Richardson, and the board is going to hold them to it.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Franklin. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
The Cardinals paired the rookies with proven help, Will Levis leading the way. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

They reached into another round for Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick51
Rnd2
Cole Bishop

Cedric Johnson at Round 6, Pick 3 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick180
Rnd6
Jaden Crumedy
Jaden Crumedy in the 180th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick181
Rnd6
Nathaniel Watson
Value said wait; Nathaniel Watson in the 181st overall pick says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick182
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
They paid up for Justin Eboigbe at the 182nd pick when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick183
Rnd6
Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy at pick No. 183 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185
Rnd6
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
A reach on Javontae Jean-Baptiste in the Round 6 slot; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick186
Rnd6
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
They left a pile of value on the table to take Zion Tupuola-Fetui this early at No. 186. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick187
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
A big swing on Jaylen Harrell at pick 187, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick188
Rnd6
Eric Watts
Eric Watts in slot 188 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick189
Rnd6
AJ Barner
You do not let a tight end like AJ Barner reach the 189th overall pick and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick190
Rnd6
Brevyn Spann-Ford
They talked themselves into Brevyn Spann-Ford at Round 6, Pick 15, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick191
Rnd6
Trey Knox
Trey Knox at pick 191 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick193
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
A slide stopped in pick No. 193, with Kamal Hadden worth more than the price. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick195
Rnd6
Beaux Limmer
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 20 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197
Rnd6
Walter Rouse
Taking Walter Rouse in the 197th 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.
Pick199
Rnd6
Delmar Glaze
A reasonable price with a little left over, Delmar Glaze in the 199th overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick200
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Steal is underselling it; Ty'Ron Hopper at slot 200 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202
Rnd6
JD Bertrand
A wild overpay on JD Bertrand in the Round 6 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick204
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
The board had Curtis Jacobs higher than No. 204, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick208
Rnd6
Tyrice Knight
By-the-book stuff, Tyrice Knight at the 208th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick210
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at pick 210 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211
Rnd6
Logan Lee
Logan Lee at No. 211 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick212
Rnd6
Myles Murphy
A big swing on Myles Murphy at slot 212, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick215
Rnd6
Darius Muasau
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Muasau. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216
Rnd6
Cody Schrader
Nothing to complain about; Cody Schrader went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick218
Rnd6
Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at the 218th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219
Rnd6
Nathan Thomas
Somehow Nathan Thomas was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick220
Rnd6
Justin Rogers
A straight-up fair deal on Justin Rogers at pick 220, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick221
Rnd7
Josh Proctor
Circle this one: Josh Proctor at pick No. 221 is a fall that decides a draft. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
A real head-scratcher, Jawhar Jordan in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick225
Rnd7
Keilan Robinson
They talked themselves into Keilan Robinson at the 225th pick, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick226
Rnd7
Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at No. 226 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick228
Rnd7
Jaylon Carlies
Jaylon Carlies in the 228th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick229
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
They took Trey Taylor at par in Round 7, Pick 9, which is nothing to complain about. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick230
Rnd7
Layden Robinson
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Layden Robinson in slot 230, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick231
Rnd7
Matthew Jones
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Matthew Jones well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232
Rnd7
Jaylan Ford
A quiet steal in slot 232: Jaylan Ford for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick234
Rnd7
Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers slipping to the 234th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick238
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial in pick No. 238 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick239
Rnd7
Andrew Coker
Andrew Coker at No. 239 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick240
Rnd7
Tarheeb Still
Tarheeb Still in the 240th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick242
Rnd7
Jarrett Kingston
They reached into another round for Jarrett Kingston, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246
Rnd7
Andrew Raym
Value said wait; Andrew Raym in Round 7, Pick 26 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick247
Rnd7
Jowon Briggs
They reached a country mile for Jowon Briggs at Round 7, Pick 27, and the board is aghast. The roster fit checks out.
Pick248
Rnd7
Lideatrick Griffin
Lideatrick Griffin in the 248th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249
Rnd7
Tylan Grable
Tylan Grable at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick250
Rnd7
Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield in the 250th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick251
Rnd7
Frank Crum
By-the-book stuff, Frank Crum at pick No. 251 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick252
Rnd7
X'Zauvea Gadlin
X'Zauvea Gadlin at slot 252 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick253
Rnd7
Keaton Bills
A premium they did not need to pay, Keaton Bills a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
