Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cardinals for Newton: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cardinals were there to profit. Jer'Zhan Newton, the No. 13 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 35. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Robinson proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 Darius Robinson
In the 27th pick they get a disruptor off the edge, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jer'Zhan Newton
Jer'Zhan Newton in the Round 2 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
