Draft Grade — Cardinals

ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cardinals: B.

Everything else got attention, and quarterback got none. That is a strange way for the Cardinals to leave a draft. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

That Nabers pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick17 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In slot 17 they get a matchup problem out wide, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
