Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in No. 151: the Cardinals steal Skattebo and grade out a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Cardinals watched Cam Skattebo slide 37 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In pick 16 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at the 47th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They did well to land Jayden Higgins in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick113 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Steal is underselling it; Sebastian Castro at the 113th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick151 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at Round 5, Pick 14 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
