Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cardinals and Lawson: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Deontae Lawson, the No. 93 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 155. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They are betting Pierce proves the room right and everyone else wrong. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Tre Harris
In slot 18 they get a matchup problem out wide, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Hollin Pierce
They talked themselves into Hollin Pierce at Round 2, Pick 18, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jaxson Dart
A wild overpay on Jaxson Dart in the 82nd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick119 Rnd4 Howard Cross III
Value with a capital V on Howard Cross III in No. 119, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick155 Rnd5 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
