Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueC
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureA+
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+. The Cardinals bet big and early on Keilan Robinson, 119 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.
However the rest shakes out, Harden at that price is a win they earned. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Rnd1

Pick34
Rnd2
Jaylen Wright
A wild overpay on Jaylen Wright in slot 34, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick35
Rnd2
Trey Benson
A big swing on Trey Benson at the 35th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick36
Rnd2
Isaiah Adams
They talked themselves into Isaiah Adams at No. 36, and the board did not agree. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick37
Rnd2
Ben Sinnott
They reached into another round for Ben Sinnott, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick38
Rnd2
Mike Sainristil
They jumped the gun on Mike Sainristil, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick39
Rnd2
Renardo Green
Value said wait; Renardo Green in slot 39 says they were not listening. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick40
Rnd2
Max Melton
Max Melton at pick No. 40 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick42
Rnd2
Marshawn Kneeland
A real head-scratcher, Marshawn Kneeland in pick 42 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick43
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy slipping to the 43rd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick47
Rnd2
Maason Smith
Maason Smith at the Round 2 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick48
Rnd2
Mekhi Wingo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mekhi Wingo well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick49
Rnd2
Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at the Round 2 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick50
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
A reach for T'Vondre Sweat in No. 50; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick51
Rnd2
Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas in Round 2, Pick 19 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick53
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at the 53rd pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick54
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
They robbed the room for Chop Robinson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick55
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at the 55th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick57
Rnd2
Cade Stover
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cade Stover in pick 57, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick59
Rnd2
Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in No. 59 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick63
Rnd2
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They went early on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in the Round 2 slot, and the value did not follow. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick65
Rnd3
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in Round 3, Pick 1 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick66
Rnd3
Edgerrin Cooper
They barely believed it either: Edgerrin Cooper still on the board at the 66th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick67
Rnd3
Xavier Legette
Nice patience on Xavier Legette, who had no business lasting to pick No. 67. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
They took Ja'Lynn Polk at par in the 68th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
No drama and no debate, Michael Hall Jr. went about where he belonged in slot 69. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70
Rnd3
Austin Booker
Austin Booker at pick 70 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
A clean, defensible pick in slot 71 with a little surplus value in Cooper Beebe. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick72
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
The board had cheaper options than Patrick Paul at the 72nd pick, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick73
Rnd3
Bralen Trice
They liked Bralen Trice enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 9. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick74
Rnd3
DeWayne Carter
They reached a country mile for DeWayne Carter at the Round 3 slot, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75
Rnd3
MarShawn Lloyd
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for MarShawn Lloyd. It fills a real need, too.
Pick78
Rnd3
Jordan Travis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jordan Travis this early at No. 78. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79
Rnd3
Tyler Nubin
The board fumbled Tyler Nubin all the way to pick 79, and they scooped it up. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick80
Rnd3
Jordan Morgan
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 80th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick82
Rnd3
Amarius Mims
Steal is underselling it; Amarius Mims at pick No. 82 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick83
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
They will replay Javon Bullard at slot 83 for years; that is how good the value is. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick84
Rnd3
Adisa Isaac
You do not let an edge rusher like Adisa Isaac reach pick 84 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick85
Rnd3
T.J. Tampa
Circle this one: T.J. Tampa at Round 3, Pick 22 is a fall that decides a draft. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick86
Rnd3
Javon Baker
A slide stopped in the 86th overall pick, with Javon Baker worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89
Rnd3
Brandon Dorlus
Nothing to complain about; Brandon Dorlus went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jonah Elliss
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jonah Elliss in the Round 3 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
A conviction pick on Gabriel Murphy at No. 92 that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick97
Rnd3
Javon Solomon
Javon Solomon at pick No. 97 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick101
Rnd4
Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson at the 101st pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103
Rnd4
Decamerion Richardson
Decamerion Richardson in Round 4, Pick 3 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick104
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
They read the board right and Kris Abrams-Draine was the payoff at slot 104. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick105
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop is a better player than the 105th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick106
Rnd4
Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at No. 106 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick107
Rnd4

Pick110
Rnd4
Christian Jones
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Christian Jones. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick111
Rnd4
Luke McCaffrey
Value said wait; Luke McCaffrey in the 111th overall pick says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick115
Rnd4

A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ty'Ron Hopper well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116
Rnd4
Cedric Gray

Pick117
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
They paid a round early for Jalyx Hunt in pick No. 117, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick120
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
They paid up for Leonard Taylor III at pick 120 when waiting would have done the job. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick121
Rnd4
Tyler Davis
A reach on Tyler Davis in Round 4, Pick 21; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jacob Cowing
By-the-book stuff, Jacob Cowing at slot 122 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
A straight-up fair deal on Brenden Rice at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125
Rnd4
Braiden McGregor

Pick127
Rnd4

Pick130
Rnd4

Pick131
Rnd4

Pick135

Pick137

Pick138
Rnd5

Pick140
Rnd5

Pick193
Rnd6
Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at No. 193 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick196
Rnd6
Delmar Glaze
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Delmar Glaze. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick197
Rnd6
Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in Round 6, Pick 22 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick198
Rnd6
Justin Rogers
They reached a country mile for Justin Rogers at the 198th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick199
Rnd6
Logan Lee
Logan Lee in Round 6, Pick 24 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick201
Rnd6
Myles Murphy
They reached into another round for Myles Murphy, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick204
Rnd6
Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at No. 204 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick205
Rnd6
Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace in pick 205 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206
Rnd6
Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen in pick No. 206 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick208
Rnd6
Layden Robinson
They took Layden Robinson at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210
Rnd6
Nathan Thomas
Value with a capital V on Nathan Thomas in slot 210, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jacob Monk
Jacob Monk at pick No. 215 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.
Pick217
Rnd6
Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at the 217th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick218
Rnd6
James Williams
The board fumbled James Williams all the way to slot 218, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick220
Rnd6
Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at the 220th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick221
Rnd7
Frank Crum
Frank Crum at No. 221 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick222
Rnd7
Isaiah Williams
They will replay Isaiah Williams at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick225
Rnd7
Sataoa Laumea
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Sataoa Laumea in pick 225, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick226
Rnd7
Matthew Jones
A wild overpay on Matthew Jones in Round 7, Pick 6, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228
Rnd7
Keaton Bills
A real head-scratcher, Keaton Bills in No. 228 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick231
Rnd7
Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym in slot 231 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick234
Rnd7
Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent in pick No. 234 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick238
Rnd7
Andrew Coker
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Andrew Coker. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick239
Rnd7
Zion Logue
Value said wait; Zion Logue in Round 7, Pick 19 says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick240
Rnd7
Jackson Sirmon
A reach on Jackson Sirmon in the 240th overall pick; the board had better options right there. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick241
Rnd7
Tarheeb Still
Fair-plus on Tarheeb Still, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick247
Rnd7
Kingsley Eguakun
Kingsley Eguakun at the 247th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick248
Rnd7
Myles Harden
Steal is underselling it; Myles Harden at No. 248 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick249
Rnd7
Kalen King
Kalen King in the 249th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick251
Rnd7
Jalen Coker
You do not let a wide receiver like Jalen Coker reach the 251st overall pick and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick252
Rnd7
Blake Watson
They barely believed it either: Blake Watson still on the board at the Round 7 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick253
Rnd7
X'Zauvea Gadlin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, X'Zauvea Gadlin well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
