Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B

FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B. The Whit Weeks selection is the head-turner. The Cardinals reached 26 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.
Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Overton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Spencer Fano
In pick 11 they get a blindside protector at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42
Rnd2
LT Overton
LT Overton is a better player than slot 42 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick73
Rnd3
Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks in the 73rd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
