Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals let Weigman fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Conner Weigman tumbling to the Cardinals in the Round 7 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In the 3rd overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Caleb Banks at the 34th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in pick No. 65 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick104 Rnd4 Xavier Scott
They paid sticker price for Xavier Scott in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jalen Stroman
Jalen Stroman at Round 5, Pick 3 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick181 Rnd6 Dane Key
Dane Key in slot 181 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick217 Rnd7 Conner Weigman
Somehow Conner Weigman was still sitting there in pick 217, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
