Arizona sent picks 160 and a 2022 fourth to Baltimore for Nos. 136 and 210, selecting Marco Wilson and Victor Dimukeje. Wilson started extensively over his first three seasons and intercepted three passes in 2022 before being released late in 2023; Dimukeje developed into a useful rotational edge defender. Baltimore's Shaun Wade was traded before his rookie season, while Charlie Kolar became a reserve tight end with 30 catches for 409 yards through 2025. Arizona received more total defensive value.

Trade Analysis
Arizona traded up in the fourth round of the 2021 draft, sending Baltimore pick No. 160 and a 2022 fourth-rounder for Nos. 136 and 210. The Cardinals selected Florida cornerback Marco Wilson at 136 and Duke edge defender Victor Dimukeje at 210. Baltimore used No. 160 on Shaun Wade and the future fourth, No. 128, on tight end Charlie Kolar.
Wilson gave Arizona immediate starting volume. He started as a rookie and remained a prominent corner through most of 2023. His best season came in 2022, when he intercepted three passes. His play declined significantly under a new coaching staff in 2023, and Arizona released him with two games remaining after he had been removed from the defensive rotation. The ending was disappointing, but three seasons of meaningful cornerback snaps from a fourth-round selection still carried value.
Dimukeje was a slower-developing piece. He spent his first two seasons deep in the rotation before a 2023 jump that included four sacks and a forced fumble. That gave Arizona a second contributor from the transaction rather than leaving the entire result on Wilson.
Baltimore's direct return was smaller. Wade did not play a regular-season game for the Ravens; Baltimore traded him to New England before his rookie season. Kolar became a useful reserve in a deep tight end room. Through 2025 he had 30 career receptions for 409 yards and four touchdowns, providing offense and special-teams value without becoming a full-time starter.
The original Baltimore B/Arizona C- verdict is backwards in hindsight. Arizona received more starting snaps and more defensive production from its two selections. The Cardinals deserve a B, while Baltimore moves to C+. The trade was not a major win because Wilson's Arizona tenure ended poorly and Kolar was useful, but Arizona came away with the stronger combined return.
