Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 152nd overall pick lands the Cardinals a B-, Gabriel and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Dillon Gabriel tumbling to the Cardinals in No. 152 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The cost of the Schwesinger reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Josh Conerly Jr.
They reached into another round for Josh Conerly Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick47 Rnd2 Carson Schwesinger
A real head-scratcher, Carson Schwesinger in pick 47 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick78 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick115 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Steal is underselling it; Savion Williams at No. 115 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick152 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
Dillon Gabriel in pick No. 152 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
