You can draft well and still miss the point. The Cardinals did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with linebacker the one that mattered most. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.
