Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. Everything else got attention, and quarterback got none. That is a strange way for the Cardinals to leave a draft.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Fuaga. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a home-run threat at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In slot 27 they get a cornerstone up front, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
By-the-book stuff, Braden Fiske at the 35th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
