Arizona Cardinals

A solid, sensible weekend for the Cardinals: B-.

The Cardinals' one glaring miss is wide receiver, a need they left exactly as they found it. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

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

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.16 · Pick 16 · Walter Nolen · DT · rank 17
In No. 16 they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · JT Tuimoloau · DE-EDGE · rank 49
A straight-up fair deal on JT Tuimoloau at pick No. 47, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Darien Porter · CB · rank 79
Darien Porter at Round 3, Pick 14 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R4.13 · Pick 114 · Hollin Pierce · OT · rank 117
Hollin Pierce at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.14 · Pick 153 · Tyler Shough · QB · rank 146
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Shough in pick 153. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
