Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B. Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Cardinals will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. The skill positions did well by the weekend.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 1 slot with a little surplus value in Marvin Harrison Jr.. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick27
Rnd1
Byron Murphy II
In the 27th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at No. 35 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
