Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cardinals, and a B- to prove it.

The Cardinals treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 225 on Ahmed Hassanein a full 21 spots early. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In No. 16 they get a load in the middle at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at Round 2, Pick 15 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at pick 78 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
Pick115 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams in pick No. 115 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
They did well to land Tyler Shough in slot 152, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick225 Rnd7 Ahmed Hassanein
They reached into another round for Ahmed Hassanein, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
