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

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cardinals left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in the 27th pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
No edge and no loss on Chop Robinson in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick66 Rnd3 Zach Frazier
They paid sticker price for Zach Frazier in pick 66, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71 Rnd3 Junior Colson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Junior Colson. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick90 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
By-the-book stuff, McKinnley Jackson at slot 90 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick104 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
No drama and no debate, Dominick Puni went about where he belonged in the 104th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
A reasonable price with a little left over, MarShawn Lloyd in Round 4, Pick 33. The roster fit checks out.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
A straight-up fair deal on Jaheim Bell at the 140th pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick188 Rnd6 Michael Wiley
They took Michael Wiley at par in Round 6, Pick 13, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick225 Rnd7 Brian Ugwu
They did well to land Brian Ugwu in No. 225, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick227 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver at pick No. 227 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
