FRANKBOOTS DRAFTING FOR THECardinals
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B-
ValueC+
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals won the night they stopped McCord from sliding. Grade: B-. The Cardinals did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kyle McCord fell into the Round 5 slot. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. The Zabel reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Grey Zabel
In slot 16 they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47
Rnd2
Tyleik Williams
A clean, defensible pick in the 47th overall pick with a little surplus value in Tyleik Williams. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick78
Rnd3
Jack Bech
Jack Bech in No. 78 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick115
Rnd4
Kobe King
Kobe King in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick152
Rnd5
Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord at pick No. 152 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
