A - The Cardinals stayed put in all their positions. IMO, the only question mark is our 7th round pick. We picked up DCR, Doucet, and Hightower. DCR is what he is, Doucet steps in to be our 3rd WR (and will be better than BJ IMO) and Hightower will be a good replacement for Shipp. The rest of our picks are big, mean, fast OLB/DE that are going to be used all over the field. Whether on ST, or defense they are going to be cracking some skulls.

I gave a B+ (all conjecture at this point anyway) because we didn't move around at all during the draft. At some point we will need extra picks to make a move for a player that will put us over the top. We were the only team to have all our original alloted picks excluding teams with compensatory picks. Not sure how many other teams didn't make any trades either.

I don't want us to be like Jackass Jones, Reid and Billicheck but one has to consider how well their teams perform every year.

B+. While we had a great 1st and 2nd round, and while our 3rd rounder was a great value pick, I'm not sold on our 2nd day at all. I'm going to be positive about it and look forward from now on, but that's my take.

I voted B.

I would love to know who was at the top of our board at the beggining of day 2.

If Hightower pans out this draft turns into an A.

I give them a b- I loved the first day of the draft, but I felt the 2nd day of the draft was a little weak would have liked to draft another kicker and one more olinemen overall though pretty good first draft for whiz
