Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cardinals: B-.

The Cardinals did not so much draft Vernon Broughton as overpay for him, 26 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. However the rest shakes out, Mastromanno at that price is a win they earned.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In pick No. 16 they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Tre Harris in slot 47 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick78 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
They took Carson Schwesinger at par in the 78th pick, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick115 Rnd4 Vernon Broughton
Value said wait; Vernon Broughton in No. 115 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick152 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
Ben Sauls in the 152nd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick225 Rnd7 Alex Mastromanno
They read the board right and Alex Mastromanno was the payoff at Round 7, Pick 9. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
