Good, not great, for the Cardinals: B.

There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Cardinals never got to the one that mattered most. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

That Newton pick is the receipt they will wave around later. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In slot 4 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the 27th pick they get a disruptive interior force at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
