Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueC
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureA+
The Cardinals won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+. The Cardinals treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 77 on Cody Schrader a full 136 spots early. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Carson. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
The veteran additions, Anthony Richardson chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Rnd6
Jowon Briggs
A real head-scratcher, Jowon Briggs in the Round 6 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick197
Rnd6
Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at Round 6, Pick 22 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick198
Rnd6
Tyrice Knight
They paid a round early for Tyrice Knight in No. 198, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick200
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
They reached into another round for Michael Barrett, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick201
Rnd6
Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at the 201st overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick202
Rnd6
AJ Barner
A tight end of that caliber at pick No. 202 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick208
Rnd6
Brevyn Spann-Ford
They reached a country mile for Brevyn Spann-Ford at pick 208, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick209
Rnd6
Trey Knox
They talked themselves into Trey Knox at the 209th pick, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick210
Rnd6
Caelen Carson
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Caelen Carson in pick No. 210, plain and simple. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick211
Rnd6
Cornelius Johnson
They robbed the room for Cornelius Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick212
Rnd6
Erick All
Steal is underselling it; Erick All at the 212th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick215
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick217
Rnd6
Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at the 217th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick218
Rnd6
Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at slot 218 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick219
Rnd6
Steele Chambers
They took Steele Chambers at par in No. 219, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220
Rnd6
Jackson Sirmon
Jackson Sirmon at Round 6, Pick 45 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick221
Rnd7
Tylan Grable
By-the-book stuff, Tylan Grable at the 221st pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick222
Rnd7
Dylan McMahon
Dylan McMahon in Round 7, Pick 2 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick223
Rnd7
Frank Crum
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Frank Crum. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225
Rnd7
Bucky Irving
Steal is underselling it; Bucky Irving at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick226
Rnd7
Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at No. 226 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick228
Rnd7
Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in pick 228 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick229
Rnd7
Dwight McGlothern
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Dwight McGlothern in pick No. 229, plain and simple. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick231
Rnd7
Curtis Jacobs
They barely believed it either: Curtis Jacobs still on the board at slot 231. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick234
Rnd7
Isaiah Williams
Somehow Isaiah Williams was still sitting there in No. 234, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick238
Rnd7
Rasheen Ali
They robbed the room for Rasheen Ali here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick240
Rnd7
Blake Watson
Blake Watson in the 240th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jaylan Ford
Circle this one: Jaylan Ford at Round 7, Pick 21 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick242
Rnd7
Julian Pearl
They read the board right and Julian Pearl was the payoff at the Round 7 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246
Rnd7
Evan Williams
Value with a capital V on Evan Williams in slot 246, a genuine coup. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick247
Rnd7
Garret Greenfield
They will replay Garret Greenfield at pick 247 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick249
Rnd7
Trey Taylor
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 249 is the definition of value, full stop. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick251
Rnd7
Tarheeb Still
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tarheeb Still at slot 251. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick252
Rnd7
Keaton Bills
Keaton Bills in the 252nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick253
Rnd7
Andrew Coker
A wild overpay on Andrew Coker in No. 253, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
