Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesA FutureD
A franchise passer in Moore headlines a B weekend for the Cardinals.

The Cardinals spent the pick that matters most on Dante Moore, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

The Easter reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Dante Moore
In pick No. 4 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Germie Bernard
This one needs a full-page explanation: Germie Bernard in slot 39, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick70 Rnd3 Rod Moore
Good price on Rod Moore in the Round 3 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price at the 106th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick144 Rnd5 J.C. Davis
They paid sticker price for J.C. Davis in pick 144, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick188 Rnd6 Shamar Easter
A wild overpay on Shamar Easter in Round 6, Pick 8, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick222 Rnd7 Barion Brown
They talked themselves into Barion Brown at No. 222, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
