Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

NeedB-
TradesA+
FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Cardinals a B+. The Cardinals torched the value chart for X'Zauvea Gadlin, taking him 90 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.
However the rest shakes out, Hadden at that price is a win they earned. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In the 19th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick21
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In pick 21 they get protection for the quarterback. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick25
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a press-man option on the boundary at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick32
Rnd1
Darius Robinson
In the 32nd overall pick they get a problem off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 41 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick46
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in pick No. 46 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick52
Rnd2
Brian Thomas Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Brian Thomas Jr. at No. 52 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick58
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Chris Braswell at the Round 2 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick62
Rnd2
Nate Wiggins
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Nate Wiggins in slot 62, plain and simple. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick63
Rnd2
Roman Wilson
A quiet steal in pick 63: Roman Wilson for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick64
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
A reasonable price with a little left over, Ricky Pearsall in the 64th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
Nice patience on Payton Wilson, who had no business lasting to the 66th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
Value with a capital V on Christian Haynes in Round 3, Pick 11, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick84
Rnd3
T.J. Tampa
You do not let a cornerback like T.J. Tampa reach the 84th pick and blink. They did not. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick85
Rnd3
Malachi Corley
Circle this one: Malachi Corley at slot 85 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick88
Rnd3
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in pick 88 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick90
Rnd3
Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at the 90th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91
Rnd3
Xavier Worthy
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 91 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni in Round 3, Pick 33 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at pick No. 104 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick108
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
By-the-book stuff, Leonard Taylor III at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122
Rnd4
Mason McCormick
Value said wait; Mason McCormick in the 122nd pick says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126
Rnd4
Cody Schrader
A real head-scratcher, Cody Schrader in the 126th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick138
Rnd5
Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at slot 138 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick156
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki in No. 156 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick158
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
They let Jacob Cowing come to them and pounced at pick No. 158. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162
Rnd5
Layden Robinson
They paid a round early for Layden Robinson in the Round 5 slot, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169
Rnd5
Javion Cohen
No edge and no loss on Javion Cohen in pick 169; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick177
Rnd6
Tommy Eichenberg
Taking Tommy Eichenberg in Round 6, Pick 2 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick178
Rnd6
Myles Cole
A big swing on Myles Cole at the Round 6 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick179
Rnd6
Jaden Crumedy
They talked themselves into Jaden Crumedy at No. 179, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick184
Rnd6
Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash at slot 184 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186
Rnd6
Jordan Travis
A tidy bit of business in the 186th overall pick, where Jordan Travis graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick198
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at Round 6, Pick 23 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick202
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
The board had Tahj Washington higher than the 202nd pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219
Rnd6
Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym in pick 219 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick226
Rnd7
X'Zauvea Gadlin
X'Zauvea Gadlin at pick No. 226 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick234
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
They reached a country mile for Jawhar Jordan at the Round 7 slot, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick236
Rnd7
Evan Anderson
They reached into another round for Evan Anderson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick243
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in No. 243 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245
Rnd7
Kamal Hadden
They robbed the room for Kamal Hadden here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick255
Rnd7
Zion Logue
This one needs a full-page explanation: Zion Logue in pick 255, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
