Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall

The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a B. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cardinals left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.
The Booker value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
In pick No. 14 they get juice off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tyler Booker at the Round 2 slot is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
