Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Cardinals.

Hard to follow the map here. The Cardinals bypassed quarterback, tight end and other spots to take Andru Phillips at the 90th overall pick, a spot they had covered. The bottom line is a respectable B.

That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
Marvin Harrison Jr. at No. 4 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick27 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In pick No. 27 they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in slot 35 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66 Rnd3 Kamari Lassiter
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kamari Lassiter in the Round 3 slot. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick71 Rnd3 Austin Booker
Fair-plus on Austin Booker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Andru Phillips
A curious use of the 90th pick. Quarterback, tight end and other spots needed the pick; a cornerback in Andru Phillips did not.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss slid further than he should have, and the 104th overall pick is lovely value for the edge rusher. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick138 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at No. 138 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick162 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
Isaiah Davis in Round 5, Pick 26 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick186 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
By-the-book stuff, Fabien Lovett at the 186th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick226 Rnd7 Dillon Johnson
Dillon Johnson in pick No. 226 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
