Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Cardinals will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.
The cost of the Walker reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They went 1 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.
Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.
Pick-by-Pick
In slot 16 they get a three-down second-level presence, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
