Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Cardinals walked right past. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Latham at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

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 go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick No. 27 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
