Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Cardinals.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Nazir Stackhouse, 28 picks early at slot 151. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

However the rest shakes out, Walker at that price is a win they earned. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 16th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at Round 2, Pick 15 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick78 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
They reached a country mile for Ajani Cornelius at pick No. 78, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick113 Rnd4 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill at No. 113 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick151 Rnd5 Nazir Stackhouse
A real head-scratcher, Nazir Stackhouse in pick 151 is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
