Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Cardinals get a C+.

The Cardinals did not so much draft Jalon Walker as overpay for him, 80 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Campbell pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

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

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In pick 18 they get a building block for the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at Round 2, Pick 18 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick82 Rnd3 Kenneth Grant
Value with a capital V on Kenneth Grant in No. 82, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in pick No. 119 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jihaad Campbell
Taking Jihaad Campbell in the 155th pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
