The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cardinals left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. No fireworks, but a solid B-.
Every board in the league had Thomas Jr. lower, and that gap is the story. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Pick-by-Pick

A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Graham Barton. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
