Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a B.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Cardinals walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 4th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In No. 27 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in pick No. 35, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
A straight-up fair deal on Ruke Orhorhoro at pick 66, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick71 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover in the 71st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Javon Baker
By-the-book stuff, Javon Baker at Round 3, Pick 27 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
