Arizona Cardinals

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

The Cardinals spent real capital to be 41 picks early on Vernon Broughton, and the board is going to hold them to it.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Collins pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.16 · Pick 16 · Cameron Williams · OT · rank 37
In the 16th pick they get a cornerstone up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 40
Jihaad Campbell at pick No. 47 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Alfred Collins · DT · rank 56
Somehow Alfred Collins was still sitting there in slot 78, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.12 · Pick 113 · Vernon Broughton · DL · rank 154
Vernon Broughton at the Round 4 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
R5.14 · Pick 151 · Quincy Riley · CB · rank 181
They reached into another round for Quincy Riley, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
