The Cardinals found their guy under center in Simpson: B. The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Cardinals spent their marquee pick on Ty Simpson, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. The Reese pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
The Cardinals clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before. The trade work was a quiet net positive.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Ty Simpson
In the Round 1 slot they get their quarterback of the future, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41
Rnd2
Arvell Reese
Steal is underselling it; Arvell Reese at the 41st overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
