Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Cardinals: B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Cardinals never addressed quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick 4 they get a disruptor off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 27th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
