Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cardinals, and a B- to prove it.

The Cardinals put a flag in the ground for Aeneas Peebles, 28 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In No. 16 they get a true top target. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They liked Demetrius Knight Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 47. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick78 Rnd3 Charles Grant
The board had cheaper options than Charles Grant at Round 3, Pick 14, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Aeneas Peebles
They left a pile of value on the table to take Aeneas Peebles this early at the 115th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick152 Rnd5 James Burnip
James Burnip at slot 152 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jermari Harris. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
