Overall B

ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-

The Cardinals let Campbell fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cardinals were there to profit. DJ Campbell, the No. 190 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 217.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 4 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.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick3 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa

In the 3rd overall pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.

Pick34 Rnd2 Colton Hood

Colton Hood at pick 34 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.

Pick65 Rnd3 Anthony Hill Jr.

The board fumbled Anthony Hill Jr. all the way to No. 65, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.

Pick104 Rnd4 Kamari Ramsey

Kamari Ramsey at pick No. 104 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.

Pick143 Rnd5 Chris McClellan

No drama and no debate, Chris McClellan went about where he belonged in slot 143. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.

Pick183 Rnd6 Reggie Virgil
