Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B-.

For all the boxes ticked, the Cardinals skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at the 47th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick78 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in the 78th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
