Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cardinals a B-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Tyler Shough in pick 78, a good 77 spots before the room expected him.

Landing Grant that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Cameron Williams
A wild overpay on Cameron Williams in No. 16, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick47 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Somehow Kenneth Grant was still sitting there in slot 47, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick78 Rnd3 Tyler Shough
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tyler Shough. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick113 Rnd4 Ty Robinson
A real head-scratcher, Ty Robinson in pick 113 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick151 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Nick Nash in the Round 5 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
