Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesD+ FutureA
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Cardinals.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Cardinals never addressed quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 9th pick they get a cornerstone up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick21 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick35 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Adonai Mitchell. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick66 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
A straight-up fair deal on Javon Bullard at No. 66, value and slot in agreement. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick71 Rnd3 Byron Murphy II
By-the-book stuff, Byron Murphy II at Round 3, Pick 7 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick85 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in the 85th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
