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

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Cardinals walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

The Mahogany pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick 27 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at Round 2, Pick 3 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick66 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Christian Haynes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
Good price on Kamren Kinchens in the Round 3 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick90 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They paid a round early for Christian Mahogany in pick No. 90, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick104 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They took Braelon Allen at par in slot 104, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
