Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Cardinals put a flag in the ground for Dillon Gabriel, 47 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Getting Walker where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Cameron Williams
In slot 16 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at No. 47 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick78 Rnd3 Dillon Gabriel
They reached a country mile for Dillon Gabriel at pick No. 78, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor in pick 114 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick151 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at Round 5, Pick 14 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
