Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Hadden should have been long gone. The Cardinals pounced, and earned a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Cardinals watched Kamal Hadden slide 58 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Reaching for All left real value on the table behind him. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick32 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 32 they get a problem off the edge, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Morgan at slot 35, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
They took Kris Jenkins at par in No. 49, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick66 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Steal is underselling it; Cooper Beebe at the 66th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick71 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
Devontez Walker at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in the 104th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Fair-plus on Christian Jones, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick162 Rnd5 Erick All
Erick All at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in Round 5, Pick 37 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 186th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick226 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 226 is the definition of value, full stop. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick252 Rnd7 Nick Gargiulo
A real head-scratcher, Nick Gargiulo in pick No. 252 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
