Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cardinals.

Some picks age like wine; DeMonte Capehart at pick No. 225 will need to, sitting 44 spots clear of his grade. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 4th pick they get a long-term starter on the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick21 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at Round 1, Pick 21 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jordan Morgan in slot 35. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick66 Rnd3 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 66 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
They took Adisa Isaac at par in pick 71, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick85 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
They will replay Caelen Carson at No. 85 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith slipping to the 104th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at the 133rd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick140 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nehemiah Pritchett at slot 140. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick188 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
They let Sam Hartman come to them and pounced at No. 188. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick225 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
This one needs a full-page explanation: DeMonte Capehart in pick No. 225, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick227 Rnd7 Isaiah Neyor
Isaiah Neyor in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
