Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a B. You can draft well and still miss the point. The Cardinals did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The skill positions did well by the weekend.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27
Rnd1
Graham Barton
They took Graham Barton at par in the 27th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
