Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B.

For all the boxes ticked, the Cardinals skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The Newton value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th pick they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In pick No. 27 they get an anchor for the defensive front at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in pick 35, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
