Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Simpson headlines a B- weekend for the Cardinals.

The Cardinals bet big and early on Dominic Zvada, 127 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Ty Simpson gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The Zvada pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at offensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots. That offensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Ty Simpson
In slot 3 they get the arm they will build around, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jadarian Price
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jadarian Price in No. 34, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick65 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
They took Ja'Kobi Lane at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104 Rnd4 Dominic Zvada
A want over a need in Round 4, Pick 4: Dominic Zvada adds a specialist while offensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick141 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at pick No. 141 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick181 Rnd6 Bud Clark
Bud Clark in the 181st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick217 Rnd7 Michael Harris
Michael Harris at the 217th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
