Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Cardinals, and a C+ to match.

The Cardinals spent real capital to be 94 picks early on David Walker, and the board is going to hold them to it. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

If Armand Membou and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In No. 16 they get an anchor for the offensive line, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick78 Rnd3 David Walker
David Walker at pick 78 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill at pick No. 114 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick153 Rnd5 Xavier Scott
They paid a round early for Xavier Scott in the 153rd pick, more than the board wanted. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
