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

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named wide receiver, a need the Cardinals walked right past. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

Reaching for Conerly Jr. left real value on the table behind him. Landing Campbell that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Josh Conerly Jr.
In slot 16 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at the Round 2 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick78 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
They paid sticker price for Shemar Turner in the 78th pick, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick115 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord in the 115th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick152 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
A straight-up fair deal on O'Donnell Fortune at pick 152, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick225 Rnd7 Alex Mastromanno
No drama and no debate, Alex Mastromanno went about where he belonged in Round 7, Pick 9. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
