Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Cardinals: C+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Will Howard in slot 78, a good 60 spots before the room expected him. A weekend of give and take that grades a C+.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Cameron Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cameron Williams well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at pick No. 47 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick78 Rnd3 Will Howard
A wild overpay on Will Howard in the 78th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at slot 113 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick151 Rnd5 Ricky White III
They talked themselves into Ricky White III at the 151st overall pick, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
