Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B-

NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul 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-.
They will need Conerly Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Williams value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Josh Conerly Jr.
In the 16th pick they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47
Rnd2
Tyleik Williams
They read the board right and Tyleik Williams was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
