Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Cardinals.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Emery Jones Jr. at No. 8 is 23 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Emery Jones Jr.
In slot 8 they get an anchor for the offensive line, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
