Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Cardinals never addressed quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.
Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 1 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Xavier Watts at the 45th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
