Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB FutureC+
More right than wrong for the Cardinals, and a B- to prove it.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cardinals left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at slot 13 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick47 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
By-the-book stuff, Aireontae Ersery at the 47th pick squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
