Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedA
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B. Start where it matters. The Cardinals took Bo Nix to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.
The skill positions did well by the weekend.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In No. 4 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick26
Rnd1
Bo Nix
In pick 26 they get the face of the franchise. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
No edge and no loss on Tyler Guyton in the 35th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
