Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cardinals. 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.
Reaching for Guyton left real value on the table behind him. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
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
Pick4
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
Malik Nabers in Round 1, Pick 4 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick27
Rnd1
Tyler Guyton
In the 27th pick they get a cornerstone up front, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
