Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

A solid, sensible weekend for the Cardinals: B-. Nobody had Germie Bernard this high, and it is not close. The Cardinals reached 29 spots to get him at No. 34. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Francis Mauigoa
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34
Rnd2
Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard in pick 34 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
