Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cardinals a B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Shemar Turner; the Cardinals did not wait, grabbing him 45 spots ahead at Round 3, Pick 14.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The Noel steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Armand Membou
A reach for Armand Membou in pick No. 16; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A clean, defensible pick in the 47th overall pick with a little surplus value in Jihaad Campbell. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick78 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Shemar Turner well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
You do not let a wide receiver like Jaylin Noel reach the 114th pick and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick153 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
A market-rate specialist, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ben Sauls. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
