Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B-.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named edge rusher, a need the Cardinals walked right past. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They are betting Zabel proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Getting Shough where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In slot 16 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 15 with a little surplus value in Tyleik Williams. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick78 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
A reach on Danny Stutsman in the Round 3 slot; the board had better options right there. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick115 Rnd4 Xavier Restrepo
A slide stopped in No. 115, with Xavier Restrepo worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
They let Tyler Shough come to them and pounced at pick 152. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
By-the-book stuff, Jermari Harris at the 225th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
