Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB+
The Cardinals got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Cardinals did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

Every board in the league had Price lower, and that gap is the story. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Christen Miller
In the Round 1 slot they get a load in the middle, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 CJ Allen
No drama and no debate, CJ Allen went about where he belonged in slot 41. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick73 Rnd3 Sam Leavitt
A premium they did not need to pay, Sam Leavitt a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jadarian Price well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick186 Rnd6 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III in pick No. 186 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick224 Rnd7 Trebor Pena
By-the-book stuff, Trebor Pena at the 224th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
