Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

More right than wrong for the Cardinals, and a B to prove it. Everything else got attention, and quarterback got none. That is a strange way for the Cardinals to leave a draft. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
The Fashanu reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 2nd overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.

Rnd1
Xavier Legette
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
