Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B

FutureB-
The Cardinals did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Cardinals walked right past.
They banked enough surplus on Latu to cover a lot of smaller sins. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
Laiatu Latu
Laiatu Latu slid further than he should have, and Round 1, Pick 27 is lovely value for the edge rusher. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
