Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cardinals worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

The rest of the league had time to spare on David Ugwoegbu; the Cardinals did not wait, grabbing him 101 spots ahead at the 123rd overall pick.

That McClellan pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

Spending an early pick on OLB-EDGE with quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In pick No. 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick26 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 26th pick they get a problem off the edge, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
They let Amarius Mims come to them and pounced at slot 35. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at pick 66 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Cedric Johnson
They reached into another round for Cedric Johnson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123 Rnd4 David Ugwoegbu
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending Round 4, Pick 23 on David Ugwoegbu with quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved.
Pick126 Rnd4 Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor at pick 126 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick133 Rnd4 Austin Stogner
They reached a country mile for Austin Stogner at slot 133, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick140 Rnd5 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at No. 140 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick225 Rnd7 Khari Coleman
This one needs a full-page explanation: Khari Coleman in the 225th overall pick, miles early. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick227 Rnd7 Aaron Frost
They paid up for Aaron Frost at pick No. 227 when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Jase McClellan in the 239th pick, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
