Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall D-
ValueC NeedA- TradesF FutureB-
The Cardinals let Flowers fall into their laps, and walked away with a D-.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Cardinals did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. Put together, it is a D-.

The Duff reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Flowers pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 KJ Duff
KJ Duff in pick 9 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick40 Rnd2 Trinidad Chambliss
Trinidad Chambliss in the 40th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick71 Rnd3 Sam Leavitt
By-the-book stuff, Sam Leavitt at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Peter Clarke
A reasonable price with a little left over, Peter Clarke in slot 119. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick146 Rnd5 Tyrique Tucker
They read the board right and Tyrique Tucker was the payoff at No. 146. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Justice Haynes
Justice Haynes in pick No. 189 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick195 Rnd6 Braelin Moore
Braelin Moore at the 195th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick226 Rnd7 Aaron Flowers
Aaron Flowers in Round 7, Pick 7 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
