Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Nobody dealt better than the Cardinals this weekend: A-.

The real work happened on the phones. The Cardinals fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The Neyor pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 JC Latham
In No. 26 they get a long-term starter on the line at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jordan Morgan at pick No. 37 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Brenden Rice. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick71 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in pick 71 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick104 Rnd4 DeWayne Carter
Fair-plus on DeWayne Carter, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick105 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
By-the-book stuff, Leonard Taylor III at the 105th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick140 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in slot 140 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick146 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at the 146th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick188 Rnd6 AJ Barner
No edge and no loss on AJ Barner in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick225 Rnd7 Isaiah Neyor
A quiet steal in the 225th pick: Isaiah Neyor for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy at pick 227 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
