Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals cashed the board's mistake on Leonard: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Riley Leonard had no business being available in the Round 5 slot, and the Cardinals did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

They are betting Zabel proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In the 16th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at slot 47 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick78 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. in the 78th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick115 Rnd4 Tai Felton
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tai Felton at the Round 4 slot is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152 Rnd5 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard in pick 152 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Thomas Fidone II
Thomas Fidone II at No. 225 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
