Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Cardinals, and a C+ to match.

The war room fell hard for Marcus Mbow, and it showed at Round 1, Pick 16: 35 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Hit on Marcus Mbow and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Marcus Mbow
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tre Harris
The board had cheaper options than Tre Harris at the 47th overall pick, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick78 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
A premium they did not need to pay, Danny Stutsman a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick115 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at pick No. 115 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick152 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
They paid a round early for Ben Sauls in the Round 5 slot, more than the board wanted. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick225 Rnd7 Cam Horsley
They liked Cam Horsley enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 225. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
