Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesC- FutureB+
The Cardinals land in the muddy middle: C+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Antonio Williams in pick No. 119, a good 53 spots before the room expected him.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Jackson. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick44 Rnd2 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in the Round 2 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick49 Rnd2 Darien Porter
A real head-scratcher, Darien Porter in the 49th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick52 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
The board had Landon Jackson higher than pick No. 52, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick119 Rnd4 Antonio Williams
A wild overpay on Antonio Williams in Round 4, Pick 18, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
