Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B+.

The Cardinals' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it.

Every board in the league had Braswell lower, and that gap is the story. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick 5 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick23 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In pick No. 23 they get a load in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In slot 27 they get a ballhawk on the outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick35 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A conviction pick on Chris Braswell at Round 2, Pick 3 that the board grades a round light. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
