Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cardinals a B.

The Cardinals pounced the moment Dillon Thieneman slipped to pick No. 70, and it is the smartest thing they did all weekend.

That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Casey pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In the 8th overall pick they get a double-digit-sack hope. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kayden McDonald
Value with a capital V on Kayden McDonald in pick 39, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick70 Rnd3 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at No. 70 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick105 Rnd4 Diego Pavia
They did well to land Diego Pavia in slot 105, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey at the Round 5 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick186 Rnd6 Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson in Round 6, Pick 7 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick221 Rnd7 DJ Harvey
They took DJ Harvey at par in No. 221, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
