Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Cardinals walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

They are betting Iheanachor proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 David Bailey
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
The board had cheaper options than Max Iheanachor at pick 34, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Good price on Jake Golday in slot 65, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
