Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall D
ValueB- NeedA- TradesF FutureB-
The Cardinals bled value on every deal, hence the D.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Kingsley Suamataia, 34 picks early at pick 27.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. That Williams pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th pick they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Kingsley Suamataia
In pick No. 27 they get an anchor for the offensive line, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams at Round 2, Pick 3 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick44 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They paid sticker price for Keon Coleman in the 44th overall pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
