Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cardinals a B.

Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Cardinals will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Graham Barton
By-the-book stuff, Graham Barton at slot 27 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick35 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Good price on Kool-Aid McKinstry in the Round 2 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
Fair-plus on Ruke Orhorhoro, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71 Rnd3 Blake Corum
A straight-up fair deal on Blake Corum at Round 3, Pick 7, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss in the 90th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
