FutureA-
Nobody dealt better than the Cardinals this weekend: B. The Cardinals bet big and early on Jawhar Jordan, 140 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. The bottom line is a respectable B.
Getting Bullock where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The Cardinals paired the rookies with proven help, Alex Singleton leading the way.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick 31 they get a true top target at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
They paid up for Chris Braswell at pick No. 37 when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick38
Rnd2
Mike Sainristil
A reach for Mike Sainristil in the Round 2 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton slid further than he should have, and slot 39 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick40
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in No. 40 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick41
Rnd2
Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at the 41st pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick51
Rnd2
Renardo Green
Renardo Green at pick No. 51 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick52
Rnd2
Max Melton
Max Melton at pick 52 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick64
Rnd2
Ben Sinnott
They reached a country mile for Ben Sinnott at Round 2, Pick 32, and the board is aghast. The roster fit checks out.
Pick66
Rnd3
Adisa Isaac
A tidy bit of business in the 66th overall pick, where Adisa Isaac graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at the 67th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick69
Rnd3
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in No. 69 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick71
Rnd3
Isaiah Adams
A real head-scratcher, Isaiah Adams in slot 71 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick77
Rnd3
Tip Reiman
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tip Reiman in the Round 3 slot, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick78
Rnd3
Decamerion Richardson
Decamerion Richardson at slot 78 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick79
Rnd3
Maason Smith
Maason Smith at No. 79 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick80
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk in the Round 3 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick81
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Value with a capital V on Trey Benson in Round 3, Pick 17, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick83
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 83rd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick85
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. is a better player than pick 85 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick87
Rnd3
Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in the 87th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick88
Rnd3
Mekhi Wingo
They went early on Mekhi Wingo in pick No. 88, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick89
Rnd3
Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at the Round 3 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick90
Rnd3
Javon Baker
Javon Baker slipping to the 90th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick93
Rnd3
Brandon Dorlus
A quiet steal in No. 93: Brandon Dorlus for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in Round 3, Pick 31, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick96
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at pick No. 96 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick98
Rnd3
Isaac Guerendo
A wild overpay on Isaac Guerendo in slot 98, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick99
Rnd3
Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss at the 99th pick is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick100
Rnd3
Javon Solomon
Javon Solomon at pick 100 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.

Pick105
Rnd4
Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at the 105th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.

Pick108
Rnd4

Pick110
Rnd4
DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter in No. 110 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick112
Rnd4
Brennan Jackson
A premium they did not need to pay, Brennan Jackson a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick113
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in slot 113 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick114
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
They jumped the gun on Jalyx Hunt, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117
Rnd4
Xavier Thomas
A big swing on Xavier Thomas at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick118
Rnd4

The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tommy Eichenberg. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick121
Rnd4
Christian Jones
They talked themselves into Christian Jones at pick 121, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick123
Rnd4
Cody Schrader
Value said wait; Cody Schrader in the 123rd overall pick says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick124
Rnd4

Pick125
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
A straight-up fair deal on Leonard Taylor III at No. 125, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126
Rnd4
Malik Mustapha
By-the-book stuff, Malik Mustapha at the 126th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick127
Rnd4
Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at No. 127 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick130
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
They read the board right and Johnny Wilson was the payoff at the 130th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick131
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
A slide stopped in the Round 4 slot, with Brenden Rice worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132
Rnd4
Jacob Cowing
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 132 with a little surplus value in Jacob Cowing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick133
Rnd4
Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in slot 133 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick135
Rnd4
Jawhar Jordan
They reached into another round for Jawhar Jordan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
They liked Michael Pratt enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 4, Pick 36. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138
Rnd5
Tyler Davis

Pick139
Rnd5

They left a pile of value on the table to take Myles Cole this early at pick 139. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick141
Rnd5

Pick142
Rnd5

Pick151
Rnd5
