The Athletic Mock Draft Arizona Cardinals 1 1 QB Kyler Murray 2 33 CB Greedy Williams 3 65 TE Jace Sternberger 4 103 OT Yodny Cajuste 5 139 WR Dillon Mitchell 6 174 OG Marquez Tucker 6 179 DT Cortez Broughton 7 248 RB Alex Barnes 7 249 WR Antoine Wesley 7 254 EDGE Quinton Bell
I mean, I'd be fine with this... if it was Bosa or even Q at 1.1 Had plenty of success with LSU DB's, Sternberger in round 3 would be nice and Cajuste would be well worth it at 4.1
Rage liked... One of the most infuriating seasons of football I've ever watched. And that was the single biggest reason, like having a ferrari but only using it go to the grocery store. Over and over and over
I mean, historically, they have been inept for 90 years... outside a few eras(Don Coryell, Kurt Warner, Bruce Arians). The Bidwill family has owned the team since it's inception so they are not independently wealthy/cash rich. They were famous for skimping on everything(literally locking the gatorade fridge at the practice facility) until Michael Bidwill took over day-to-day operations. Since then they haven't often been a disaster(still some awful teams in that last 20 years or so, naturally), but it's never been a 'well-run' franchise. Keim's the classic NFL-bro that is high on his own genius, so he completely mis-read the state of the team as the Palmer/Arians era wound down. So they were completely unprepared for the hiring process last year, botched it, and then had no chance with that goddawful roster(Keim assumed he could wave his magic wand with veterans to paper over the cracks. Whoops). Now, it's a complete crapshoot. No idea what they are trying to do
I am obviously biased but drafting a QB in the top 10 giving him one year and then taking one first overall that isn’t a no brainer is a perfect illustration of incompetence. Bosa has pretty much been the unanimous #1.
