Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B

No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cardinals.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Cardinals did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They banked enough surplus on Wiggins to cover a lot of smaller sins. On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick 4 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick26 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
