Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 6 slot lands the Cardinals a B, Hart and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Cam Hart, pick No. 186, roughly 71 picks past where he belonged.

The Travis reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 4th pick they get a blindside protector. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In pick No. 27 they get a seam-stretching tight end at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
A tidy little value on Adonai Mitchell in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
The board fumbled Ennis Rakestraw Jr. all the way to pick 66, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick71 Rnd3 Amarius Mims
Somehow Amarius Mims was still sitting there in slot 71, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90 Rnd3 Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the 90th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tyler Nubin
They will replay Tyler Nubin at No. 104 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Travis in Round 5, Pick 2, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick165 Rnd5 Will Shipley
Will Shipley at slot 165 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick186 Rnd6 Cam Hart
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Cam Hart in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick226 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
By-the-book stuff, Garret Greenfield at pick 226 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
