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

The Cardinals' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

On value alone, Robinson makes the weekend a net positive. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 2 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick21 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 21 they get a premier pass rusher, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Josh Newton
Josh Newton in the 34th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick66 Rnd3 Byron Murphy II
A tidy little value on Byron Murphy II in No. 66, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70 Rnd3 Howard Cross III
They took Howard Cross III at par in the 70th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick85 Rnd3 Nazir Stackhouse
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nazir Stackhouse. The roster fit checks out.
