Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals cashed the board's mistake on Stutsman: B-.

Somebody in the Round 5 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cardinals sat still while Danny Stutsman, the No. 89 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They are betting Grant proves the room right and everyone else wrong. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick No. 17 they get a sticky cover corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick48 Rnd2 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at pick 48 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Carson Beck
A real head-scratcher, Carson Beck in the Round 3 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
A reach on Rylie Mills in No. 117; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick152 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Steal is underselling it; Danny Stutsman at the 152nd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
