For all the boxes ticked, the Cardinals skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 3 they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
