Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Cardinals: C+.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Shemar Turner at pick 47 is 82 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Collins.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In pick No. 16 they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at slot 47 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick78 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the 78th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at the Round 4 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick153 Rnd5 Andres Borregales
A straight-up fair deal on Andres Borregales at Round 5, Pick 14, value and slot in agreement. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
