Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cardinals. For all the boxes ticked, the Cardinals skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was.
Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered. The skill positions did well by the weekend.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
No edge and no loss on Malik Nabers in No. 4; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick27
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
In pick No. 27 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value.
Pick35
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in slot 35, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
