Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Cardinals.

The Cardinals put a flag in the ground for Ben Sinnott, 25 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Wright pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In No. 4 they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In slot 27 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kool-Aid McKinstry in pick No. 35. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick66 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Haynes at the 66th pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 Javon Baker
Javon Baker in pick 71 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.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
Taking Jaylen Wright in Round 3, Pick 27 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A real head-scratcher, Ben Sinnott in the 104th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
