Draft Grade — Cardinals

More right than wrong for the Cardinals, and a B to prove it.

For all the boxes ticked, the Cardinals skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In slot 3 they get a blindside protector at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
By-the-book stuff, Akheem Mesidor at the 34th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
