The 2025 NFL draft is complete and now early grades are coming in. Some really like what the Arizona Cardinals did with their seven-player draft. Others were less optimistic.
ESPN's Mel Kiper didn't love the Cardinals' draft but didn't hate it. In his 2025 NFL draft grades, he gave them a B-plus.
Kiper felt taking defensive lineman Walter Nolen 16th overall was a little high and is concerned about his consistency of play from down to down.
