Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB+
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cardinals checked most of the boxes and earned a B. The Cardinals' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
They banked enough surplus on Latham to cover a lot of smaller sins. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
JC Latham
In slot 27 they get a long-term starter on the line, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
