jordans DRAFTING FOR THECardinals
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Cardinals: B. You can draft well and still miss the point. The Cardinals did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most.
That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 16 they get a true top target. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
They let Jihaad Campbell come to them and pounced at pick 47. The roster fit checks out.
Pick78
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at the 78th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick115
Rnd4
Jordan Phillips
Good price on Jordan Phillips in slot 115, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick152
Rnd5
Logan Brown
Logan Brown at No. 152 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick225
Rnd7
Kobe Hudson
A straight-up fair deal on Kobe Hudson at Round 7, Pick 9, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
