Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cardinals and Bernard: B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Cardinals, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

The Moore reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. However the rest shakes out, Bernard at that price is a win they earned. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In the Round 1 slot they get a featured back, and a steal at that.
Pick22 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Nice patience on Sonny Styles, who had no business lasting to the 33rd pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick35 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
A reach for Max Iheanachor in pick No. 35; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick36 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
No edge and no loss on Akheem Mesidor in slot 36; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick38 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A tidy little value on Dillon Thieneman in pick 38, a step better than break-even. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick39 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
No drama and no debate, Emmanuel Pregnon went about where he belonged in No. 39. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick40 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
They reached a country mile for Derrick Moore at pick 40, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick65 Rnd3 Garrett Nussmeier
They paid a round early for Garrett Nussmeier in the 65th overall pick, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick67 Rnd3 Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at Round 3, Pick 3 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick84 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
Steal is underselling it; Germie Bernard at pick No. 84 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
