Draft Grade — Cardinals
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB+ FutureB-
The Cardinals kept it disciplined and banked a B.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Cardinals did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The Newton pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick23 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick No. 23 they get a long-term starter on the line, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptive interior force, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
