Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
A-
ValueB
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureA+
The Cardinals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A-. Boards are made to be trusted, and the Cardinals shredded theirs for Al Blades Jr.. He came off 43 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Solomon pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, tight end and other spots. The Jones pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.
That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In pick 15 they get a weapon on the perimeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Graham Barton
Graham Barton at pick No. 35 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick64
Rnd2
Kalen King
Kalen King at the 64th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick66
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at Round 3, Pick 2 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk at slot 71 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick90
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 3 slot with a little surplus value in Gabriel Murphy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick104
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A surprising call. With quarterback, tight end and other spots still to address, they spent slot 104 on Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick140
Rnd5
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at the 140th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick169
Rnd5
Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio slipping to No. 169 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick188
Rnd6
Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at the 188th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick225
Rnd7
Daequan Hardy
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Daequan Hardy at pick 225. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick227
Rnd7
Myles Jones
Somehow Myles Jones was still sitting there in pick No. 227, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick239
Rnd7
Trey Wedig
Trey Wedig at Round 7, Pick 19 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick248
Rnd7
Al Blades Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Al Blades Jr.. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
