Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals let Hunter fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

The Cardinals spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jarquez Hunter, the No. 188 name on the board, in pick 225.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. If Knight Jr. pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
Josh Simmons in pick 16 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick47 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They went early on Demetrius Knight Jr. in pick No. 47, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at Round 3, Pick 14 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick152 Rnd5 Andres Borregales
No drama and no debate, Andres Borregales went about where he belonged in the 152nd overall pick. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jarquez Hunter
Circle this one: Jarquez Hunter at No. 225 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
