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

The Cardinals' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it.

Reaching for Henderson left real value on the table behind him. Allen at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 2 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick21 Rnd1 Bralen Trice
In pick 21 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Keon Coleman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
Good price on Leonard Taylor III in the Round 3 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick70 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
No edge and no loss on Chris Braswell in the 70th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick85 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen is a better player than the 85th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick102 Rnd4 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at Round 4, Pick 2 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick133 Rnd4 Tyler Guyton
No drama and no debate, Tyler Guyton went about where he belonged in slot 133. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tahj Brooks
By-the-book stuff, Tahj Brooks at the 139th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
A straight-up fair deal on Kamal Hadden at the 169th pick, value and slot in agreement. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick198 Rnd6 Keith Randolph Jr.
They took Keith Randolph Jr. at par in slot 198, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jason Henderson
The board had cheaper options than Jason Henderson at No. 223, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick226 Rnd7 DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter in pick 226 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
