Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cardinals: B-.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cardinals left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Landing Ratledge that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a wrecking ball inside. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge is a better player than slot 47 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
