Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B.

The Cardinals put a flag in the ground for Tosh Baker, 33 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

However the rest shakes out, Nussmeier at that price is a win they earned. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In the 3rd overall pick they get a three-down runner. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in slot 34 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick65 Rnd3 Zion Young
Zion Young in No. 65 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104 Rnd4 Garrett Nussmeier
The board fumbled Garrett Nussmeier all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick141 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Kevin Coleman Jr. at the 141st pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick181 Rnd6 Nadame Tucker
Steal is underselling it; Nadame Tucker at pick 181 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick217 Rnd7 Tosh Baker
Tosh Baker at the 217th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
