Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cardinals and McCormick: B+.

Whoever sat across the table from the Cardinals should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The McCormick pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

The Jonathan Greenard deal gives the class an established piece to lean on. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 11 they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick23 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the 23rd pick they get an island corner at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick27 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In No. 27 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Good price on Tyler Guyton in the 35th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick66 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy is a better player than slot 66 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro at Round 3, Pick 7 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
They did well to land Jaden Hicks in slot 90, just ahead of his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick104 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at Round 4, Pick 4 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138 Rnd5 James Williams
James Williams at No. 138 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick162 Rnd5 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyrone Tracy Jr. at the 162nd overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick167 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick in pick 167 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
