Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. The Cardinals' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.
Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick 27 they get a ballhawk on the outside. More want than need.
