Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB+
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cardinals: B. There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Cardinals never got to the one that mattered most. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
The Newton steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
The skill positions did well by the weekend.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Jer'Zhan Newton
In No. 27 they get a wrecking ball inside, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
