Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a 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 nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They will need Braswell to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. However the rest shakes out, Nabers at that price is a win they earned. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 11th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick23 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In pick 23 they get a disruptive interior force. A real need, handled.
Pick27 Rnd1 Chris Braswell
In the 27th pick they get a bendy edge with upside, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
A straight-up fair deal on Kamari Lassiter at pick No. 35, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
