Draft Grade — Cardinals

Grand theft in the 178th pick: the Cardinals steal Harris and grade out a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cardinals were there to profit. Tre Harris, the No. 17 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 178. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Harold Perkins Jr.
In the 8th pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Travis Hunter
Circle this one: Travis Hunter at No. 39 is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick70 Rnd3 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in the 106th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick142 Rnd5 Cam Ward
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Cam Ward in pick No. 142, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick178 Rnd6 Tre Harris
Taking Tre Harris in pick 178 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
