Arizona Cardinals: 5 bold draft predictions
By Scott Allen
The Arizona Cardinals reportedly have their eye on a few key positions
The Arizona Cardinals have a number of needs when it comes to finding new players for the 2017 season. We know they want a future quarterback. That much they have told us. They also have needs at cornerback. They’d like to add a linebacker as well.
After that, it’s anyone’s best guess. They certainly will look at offensive line, probably receiver. Many fans want a new kicker and punter. They likely won’t get those players in the draft though.
The real surprises come when they start picking up players at positions that they would be viewed as being set at. Running back and safety come to mind. This past week it was reported they might be interested in those positions.
There are the fan favorites everyone talks about that the Cardinals should go after. I’ve seen first round mock drafts that have the Cardinals taking players from many different positions.
Here is a look at five players that come draft day could surprise you when their name is called by the Cardinals during the three-day event. As always this is not set in stone. It is just one person’s bold prediction. These draft-eligible players would fit in Arizona.
