Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

ValueC
NeedC
TradesA+
FutureA+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Cardinals a B+. The Cardinals spent real capital to be 142 picks early on Andrew Coker, and the board is going to hold them to it. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.
Shipley falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own. Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick35
Rnd2
Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims at pick 35 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick36
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in Round 2, Pick 4 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick41
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick42
Rnd2
Roman Wilson
A straight-up fair deal on Roman Wilson at pick No. 42, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick55
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Chris Braswell at the 55th overall pick is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick56
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Xavier Legette in slot 56, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick62
Rnd2
Jaylen Wright
They paid up for Jaylen Wright at the 62nd pick when waiting would have done the job. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick63
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick64
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 64th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick74
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
A slide stopped in Round 3, Pick 10, with Christian Haynes worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
Good price on Devontez Walker in No. 75, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick76
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
No drama and no debate, Mike Sainristil went about where he belonged in pick No. 76. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick77
Rnd3
Mekhi Wingo
They reached a country mile for Mekhi Wingo at pick 77, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick78
Rnd3
Jermaine Burton
Somehow Jermaine Burton was still sitting there in slot 78, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick83
Rnd3
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in slot 83 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick87
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
They took Dominick Puni at par in the 87th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89
Rnd3
Junior Colson
You do not let a linebacker like Junior Colson reach Round 3, Pick 26 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick92
Rnd3
Mohamed Kamara
They talked themselves into Mohamed Kamara at pick 92, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick93
Rnd3
Max Melton
Nice patience on Max Melton, who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick94
Rnd3
Ben Sinnott
A real head-scratcher, Ben Sinnott in the 94th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95
Rnd3
Malik Washington
Malik Washington in No. 95 is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick96
Rnd3
Jacob Cowing
Value said wait; Jacob Cowing in pick No. 96 says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick97
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
The board had cheaper options than Zak Zinter at pick No. 97, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick98
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick101
Rnd4
Maason Smith
Maason Smith at the 101st overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick104
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
They barely believed it either: Kris Abrams-Draine still on the board at slot 104. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick105
Rnd4
Jaden Hicks
The board fumbled Jaden Hicks all the way to No. 105, and they scooped it up. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.

Javon Baker
They let Javon Baker come to them and pounced at pick 106. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick107
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Beaux Limmer. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick108
Rnd4
Andru Phillips

Pick111
Rnd4
DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter at the 111th pick is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick112
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
A tidy bit of business in pick 112, where Brenden Rice graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A market-rate OLB-EDGE, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Solomon. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick114
Rnd4
Jalen McMillan
A quiet steal in pick No. 114: Jalen McMillan for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick115
Rnd4

Pick118

Anthony Gould
A big swing on Anthony Gould at slot 118, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick119
Rnd4
Roger Rosengarten

Pick120

Pick122
Rnd4

Pick123
Rnd4
Trevor Keegan
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trevor Keegan this early at pick 123. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick124
Rnd4
Javon Foster
Nothing to complain about; Javon Foster went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick125
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III is a better player than slot 125 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick126
Rnd4
Hunter Nourzad
Hunter Nourzad at No. 126 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127
Rnd4
Gabe Hall

Pick128
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jalyx Hunt well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick129

Pick131
Rnd4

Pick132
Rnd4

Pick133
Rnd4
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the Round 4 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick134
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
The board had Johnny Wilson higher than Round 4, Pick 34, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at slot 135 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick136
Rnd4

A reasonable price with a little left over, Jamari Thrash in the 136th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.

Pick140
Rnd5

Pick141
Rnd5
Beau Brade

Pick142
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
A wild overpay on Kamal Hadden in pick 142, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.

Pick160
Rnd5
Ro Torrence
