Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueC
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureA+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Cardinals a B+. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Jawhar Jordan, 143 picks early at Round 4, Pick 32.
Rattler falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
The Cardinals clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 1st pick they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick4
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In slot 4 they get a home-run threat at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick7
Rnd1
Brock Bowers
In No. 7 they get a mismatch in the passing game at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick8
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
No drama and no debate, Olumuyiwa Fashanu went about where he belonged in the Round 1 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick9
Rnd1
Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 9 they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick13
Rnd1
JC Latham
In the 13th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick14
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at the 14th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick15
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner in the Round 1 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick16
Rnd1
Darius Robinson
In No. 16 they get a double-digit-sack hope, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick17
Rnd1
Braden Fiske
In pick No. 17 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick19
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
In pick 19 they get a press-man option on the boundary. More want than need.
Pick20
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In the 20th pick they get a problem off the edge, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick21
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In slot 21 they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick22
Rnd1
Payton Wilson
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a green-dot type in the middle, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick23
Rnd1
Roman Wilson
In the 23rd pick they get a weapon on the perimeter, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick24
Rnd1
Ricky Pearsall
In No. 24 they get a go-to option on the outside, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick25
Rnd1
Malachi Corley
They reached a country mile for Malachi Corley at Round 1, Pick 25, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick26
Rnd1
Ben Sinnott
In the 26th overall pick they get a red-zone target to build around, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Mike Sainristil
A big swing on Mike Sainristil at pick 27, well ahead of any board in the building. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick28
Rnd1
Renardo Green
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Renardo Green. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick29
Rnd1
Jaylen Wright
In slot 29 they get a lead back with juice, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick30
Rnd1
Trey Benson
In pick No. 30 they get a three-down runner, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick31
Rnd1
Byron Murphy II
In slot 31 they get an anchor for the defensive front at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick32
Rnd1
Xavier Worthy
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a No. 1 receiver, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
A real head-scratcher, Chris Braswell in the Round 2 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick34
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in the 34th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick35
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing J.J. McCarthy in the 35th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick37
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at No. 37 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick38
Rnd2
Marshawn Kneeland
A wild overpay on Marshawn Kneeland in pick No. 38, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick39
Rnd2
Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at pick 39 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick40
Rnd2
Maason Smith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Maason Smith this early at slot 40. It fills a real need, too.
Pick42
Rnd2
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at pick No. 42 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick43
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
Steal is underselling it; Chop Robinson at the 43rd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick44
Rnd2
DeWayne Carter
This one needs a full-page explanation: DeWayne Carter in the Round 2 slot, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick45
Rnd2
Cade Stover
They reached into another round for Cade Stover, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick47
Rnd2
Austin Booker
They talked themselves into Austin Booker at Round 2, Pick 15, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick57
Rnd2
Max Melton
Max Melton in pick 57 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick58
Rnd2
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson well ahead of where he belonged. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick63
Rnd2
Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at the 63rd pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick64
Rnd2
Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman in the Round 2 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66
Rnd3
Roger Rosengarten
Value said wait; Roger Rosengarten in the 66th overall pick says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Christian Haynes at Round 3, Pick 3. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick68
Rnd3
Graham Barton
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Graham Barton in No. 68, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick69
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
Nothing to complain about; Cooper Beebe went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick70
Rnd3
Brandon Coleman
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Brandon Coleman well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71
Rnd3
Isaiah Adams
Isaiah Adams at pick No. 71 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75
Rnd3
Decamerion Richardson
They reached a country mile for Decamerion Richardson at the Round 3 slot, and the board is aghast. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick76
Rnd3
Ennis Rakestraw Jr.

Rnd3
Xavier Legette

Value with a capital V on Malik Washington in Round 3, Pick 27, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick91
Rnd3
Luke McCaffrey
They reached into another round for Luke McCaffrey, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92
Rnd3

Rnd4
AJ Barner

Pick114

Pick126
Rnd4
Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki in No. 126 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.

Pick142
