Even without the dominance displayed by Nkemdiche in rookie minicamp, the Cardinals hit a total home run here. Only the potential off-field issues keep this from being an A+.

Round 3, No. 92 Overall: Brandon Williams, CB, Texas A&M

Given the lack of depth at corner, this pick filled a big need. Williams has the raw tools necessary to succeed, but he must refine his skills to become a steady player. As a sub-package guy in year one, he has time to figure things out.

Round 4, No. 128 Overall: Evan Boehm, C, Missouri

Some graded Boehm as the second-best center in this draft class, so the Cards may have landed a potential starter here in Round 4. He should push AQ Shipley for the job in year one and be a great building block for a solid line.

Round 5, No. 167 Overall: Marqui Christian, S, Midwestern State

DJ Swearinger has been underwhelming during his NFL career, so Christian could come in and push for playing time as a box safety as a rookie. This kid’s a hard hitter who will also help out on special teams.

Round 5, No. 170 Overall: Cole Toner, OT, Harvard

This quick-footed tackle out of Harvard brings flexibility and depth to a Cardinals line that will have some free agency questions looming next offseason. At worst, Toner is a decent backup piece moving forward.

Round 6, No. 205 Overall: Harlan Miller, CB, Southeastern Louisiana

Miller has opened some eyes already with his ball-hawking performances in rookie minicamp, so he brings plenty of promise to the Arizona secondary. That unit will have a lot of depth to work with in 2016 and beyond.
