Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall
C+
ValueD
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Cardinals get a C+. Some picks age like wine; Shemar Stewart at slot 17 will need to, sitting 34 spots clear of his grade.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
So much rides on Shemar Stewart that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Shemar Stewart
In the 17th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48
Rnd2
Grey Zabel
Grey Zabel in slot 48 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
