Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B+
ValueC+
NeedC+
TradesA+
FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Cardinals this weekend: B+. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cardinals took Decamerion Richardson a full 93 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. No fireworks, but a solid B+.
Barner falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
Job largely done: quarterback settled and 8 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In slot 3 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick10
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In pick 10 they get an anchor for the offensive line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick12
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In pick No. 12 they get a disruptor off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick14
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
In the 14th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick17
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 17th pick they get a long-term starter on the line, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24
Rnd1
Darius Robinson
In No. 24 they get a premier pass rusher, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick25
Rnd1
Chris Braswell
In No. 25 they get a double-digit-sack hope, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick26
Rnd1
Braden Fiske
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick28
Rnd1
Byron Murphy II
In pick 28 they get an anchor for the defensive front, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick29
Rnd1
Ladd McConkey
In the Round 1 slot they get a home-run threat at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick30
Rnd1
Roman Wilson
In the 30th pick they get a weapon on the perimeter, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick31
Rnd1
Cooper Beebe
The board had cheaper options than Cooper Beebe at slot 31, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick32
Rnd1
Payton Wilson
In pick No. 32 they get the heartbeat of the defense, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley at the 33rd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick34
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ricky Pearsall in pick No. 34, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick35
Rnd2
Jaylen Wright
A big swing on Jaylen Wright at slot 35, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick36
Rnd2
MarShawn Lloyd
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for MarShawn Lloyd. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick37
Rnd2
Jared Verse
Somehow Jared Verse was still sitting there in pick 37, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims in the 38th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick39
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
A tidy little value on Ja'Tavion Sanders in the 39th pick, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick40
Rnd2
Cade Stover
A wild overpay on Cade Stover in Round 2, Pick 8, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick42
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
They jumped the gun on Xavier Worthy, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick43
Rnd2
Christian Haynes
They left a pile of value on the table to take Christian Haynes this early at the 43rd pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick44
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
Taking Chop Robinson in slot 44 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick47
Rnd2
Adisa Isaac
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Adisa Isaac. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick48
Rnd2
Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick52
Rnd2
Drake Maye
Steal is underselling it; Drake Maye at pick 52 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick53
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
A reach for Ruke Orhorhoro in pick No. 53; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick54
Rnd2
Marshawn Kneeland
They reached into another round for Marshawn Kneeland, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick55
Rnd2
Maason Smith
Maason Smith at the 55th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick56
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in slot 56 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick58
Rnd2
Renardo Green
They reached a country mile for Renardo Green at pick No. 58, and the board is aghast. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick63
Rnd2
T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa slipping to No. 63 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick64
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in Round 2, Pick 32 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick66
Rnd3
Xavier Legette
Circle this one: Xavier Legette at pick 66 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick67
Rnd3
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick68
Rnd3
Junior Colson
They let Junior Colson come to them and pounced at the 68th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick69
Rnd3
Bralen Trice
They did well to land Bralen Trice in the 69th pick, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70
Rnd3
Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in No. 70 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick71
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at slot 71 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick72
Rnd3
Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick75
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
They paid sticker price for Michael Hall Jr. in pick 75, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
By-the-book stuff, Mike Sainristil at the 76th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick77
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They liked Dadrion Taylor-Demerson enough to skip the value, taking him in the 77th overall pick. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick78
Rnd3
Keon Coleman
They barely believed it either: Keon Coleman still on the board at pick No. 78. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick83
Rnd3
Brandon Dorlus
Good price on Brandon Dorlus in Round 3, Pick 19, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick84
Rnd3
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in Round 3, Pick 20 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86
Rnd3
Malik Washington
They took Malik Washington at par in pick No. 86, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick88
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
The board fumbled Devontez Walker all the way to the 88th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick89
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk is a better player than the 89th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick90
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
A offensive lineman of that caliber at No. 90 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick91
Rnd3
DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter at slot 91 is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick97
Rnd3
Kris Abrams-Draine
The board had Kris Abrams-Draine higher than pick 97, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick100
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103
Rnd4
Sedrick Van Pran
They will replay Sedrick Van Pran at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104
Rnd4
Christian Mahogany
A reasonable price with a little left over, Christian Mahogany in the 104th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick105
Rnd4
Mekhi Wingo
A straight-up fair deal on Mekhi Wingo at pick No. 105, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick106
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 6 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick109
Rnd4
Matt Goncalves
No drama and no debate, Matt Goncalves went about where he belonged in slot 109. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110
Rnd4
Isaiah Adams
They talked themselves into Isaiah Adams at pick 110, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick112
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
A premium they did not need to pay, Beaux Limmer a notch or two before his time. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117
Rnd4
Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Jarvis Brownlee Jr. in No. 117 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick119
Rnd4
Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade in the 119th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick120
Rnd4
Marist Liufau
A real head-scratcher, Marist Liufau in Round 4, Pick 20 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
A reach on Mohamed Kamara in No. 122; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick124
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jalyx Hunt well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125
Rnd4
Jalen McMillan
You do not let a wide receiver like Jalen McMillan reach pick No. 125 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126
Rnd4
Blake Fisher
Value with a capital V on Blake Fisher in pick 126, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130
Rnd4
Javon Foster
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Javon Foster at the 130th overall pick is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick131
Rnd4
Josh Newton
Josh Newton at the Round 4 slot is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick132
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A slide stopped in Round 4, Pick 32, with Javon Solomon worth more than the price. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick134
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at No. 134 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick137
Rnd5
Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson at the 137th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick138
Rnd5
Khristian Boyd
Value said wait; Khristian Boyd in the 138th pick says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139
Rnd5
Hunter Nourzad
They reached into another round for Hunter Nourzad, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140
Rnd5
Brandon Coleman
Value said wait; Brandon Coleman in pick No. 140 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick141
Rnd5
Logan Lee
This one needs a full-page explanation: Logan Lee in pick 141, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick142
Rnd5
Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall in slot 142 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick143
Rnd5
Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at No. 143 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick146
Rnd5
Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in the 146th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick148
Rnd5
Sataoa Laumea
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Sataoa Laumea for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick150
Rnd5
Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy at pick 150 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick151
Rnd5
Anthony Gould
They read the board right and Anthony Gould was the payoff at pick No. 151. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick152
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at Round 5, Pick 16 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick155
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at the 155th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick159
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
They went early on Jordan Travis in slot 159, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick161
Rnd5
Mason McCormick
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Mason McCormick in slot 161. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick162
Rnd5
Delmar Glaze
A big swing on Delmar Glaze at the Round 5 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick164
Rnd5
Layden Robinson
They paid up for Layden Robinson at pick No. 164 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick166
Rnd5
Walter Rouse
No edge and no loss on Walter Rouse in Round 5, Pick 30; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168
Rnd5
Xavier Thomas
A clean, defensible pick in No. 168 with a little surplus value in Xavier Thomas. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169
Rnd5
Braiden McGregor
By-the-book stuff, Braiden McGregor at the 169th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick171
Rnd5
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the 171st overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173
Rnd5
Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at pick 173 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick176
Rnd6
Trey Knox
They talked themselves into Trey Knox at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick178
Rnd6
Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers in slot 178 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
No edge and no loss on Fabien Lovett in pick No. 180; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick182
Rnd6
Jaden Crumedy
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaden Crumedy well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183
Rnd6
Myles Murphy
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Myles Murphy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick186
Rnd6
Cedric Johnson
They reached a country mile for Cedric Johnson at the 186th pick, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick187
Rnd6
Myles Cole
They paid a round early for Myles Cole in No. 187, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick193
Rnd6
Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui in Round 6, Pick 18 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick194
Rnd6
Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki at the 194th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick196
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
A conviction pick on Jaylen Harrell at pick No. 196 that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick197
Rnd6
Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace in the 197th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200
Rnd6
Andrew Raym
A wild overpay on Andrew Raym in Round 6, Pick 25, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick203
Rnd6
Keaton Bills
A real head-scratcher, Keaton Bills in the Round 6 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick205
Rnd6
Andrew Coker
They left a pile of value on the table to take Andrew Coker this early at pick 205. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick208
Rnd6
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste in No. 208 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick212
Rnd6
Kamal Hadden
They robbed the room for Kamal Hadden here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick218
Rnd6
Ro Torrence
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Ro Torrence in slot 218, plain and simple. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick220
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at No. 220 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick221
Rnd7
Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial at pick No. 221 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick222
Rnd7
Josh Proctor
They reached a country mile for Josh Proctor at Round 7, Pick 2, and the board is aghast. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick225
Rnd7
Decamerion Richardson
Decamerion Richardson at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick226
Rnd7
AJ Barner
Circle this one: AJ Barner at pick 226 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick227
Rnd7
Steele Chambers
You do not let a linebacker like Steele Chambers reach the 227th pick and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick231
Rnd7
Ryan Flournoy
They barely believed it either: Ryan Flournoy still on the board at the 231st overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick240
Rnd7
Kimani Vidal
They liked Kimani Vidal enough to skip the value, taking him in the 240th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick242
Rnd7
Frank Gore Jr.
A tidy bit of business in No. 242, where Frank Gore Jr. graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick252
Rnd7
Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan in pick 252 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick253
Rnd7
JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
