Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall C+

The Cardinals land in the muddy middle: C+.

The Cardinals treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 225 on Cooper Mays a full 84 spots early.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They banked enough surplus on Mills to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Jihaad Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get a green-dot type in the middle, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at the 47th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick78 Rnd3 Miles Frazier
They left a pile of value on the table to take Miles Frazier this early at the 78th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick115 Rnd4 Chase Lundt
They talked themselves into Chase Lundt at Round 4, Pick 13, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills is a better player than pick No. 152 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick225 Rnd7 Cooper Mays
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cooper Mays well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
