Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
B
ValueB+
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cardinals: B. You can draft well and still miss the point. The Cardinals did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most. The bottom line is a respectable B.
That Newton pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
The skill positions did well by the weekend.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Jer'Zhan Newton
In No. 27 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick35
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at slot 35 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
