Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

The search is over. The Cardinals handed the keys to Shedeur Sanders, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Campbell pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
A reasonable price with a little left over, Shedeur Sanders in Round 1, Pick 16. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in No. 47 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick78 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Nice patience on Elic Ayomanor, who had no business lasting to the 78th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in the 115th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jalen Rivers
They went early on Jalen Rivers in slot 152, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick225 Rnd7 Simeon Barrow Jr.
Simeon Barrow Jr. in the Round 7 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
