Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B-
ValueC+
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. The Cardinals treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 27 on T'Vondre Sweat a full 31 spots early. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In pick No. 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
T'Vondre Sweat
In the 27th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
