Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a 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. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Bond pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The cost of the Green reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Mike Green
Mike Green at the Round 1 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick47 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
A tidy bit of business in the 47th pick, where Isaiah Bond graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick78 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
A clean, defensible pick in slot 78 with a little surplus value in Omarr Norman-Lott. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
They paid up for Jeffrey Bassa at No. 113 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
A conviction pick on Jaeden Roberts at pick No. 151 that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
