Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Dart should have been long gone. The Cardinals pounced, and earned a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cardinals were there to profit. Jaxson Dart, the No. 62 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 136. The bottom line is a respectable B.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most. The back end got a real overhaul.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get a potential shutdown corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer in slot 40 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Mykel Williams
You do not let an edge rusher like Mykel Williams reach the 72nd overall pick and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron in pick No. 104 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick136 Rnd5 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in the 136th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick168 Rnd6 TJ Ferguson
A slide stopped in No. 168, with TJ Ferguson worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick200 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
