The 2013 NFL Draft should be an interesting one for the Arizona Cardinals. They could go in so many different directions with the number seven pick in the draft. Of course with the greatest need being quarterback, that will probably get the greatest hype. The offensive line also is a huge necessity so don’t be surprised if the Cards bypass a quarterback to get a top of the line offensive lineman. Right now, as usual, it is all just a guessing game.
