Round four: Take either an offensive tackle or wide receiver, whichever hasn’t been selected yet.

Remember how I said for No. 33 overall that the Arizona Cardinals should draft a receiver or offensive lineman, whichever is highest on the board? Well, that same logic applies to No. 103 overall, but if the round two selection is a wide receiver, take an offensive lineman, and vice-versa.

At this point of the draft, the Redbirds should be able to take a potential starter at either position. Although the interior line class in the fourth may be weak, the offensive tackle group may not be. Some talented tackles that I could see falling here include;

  • Max Scharping, Northern Illinois
  • Yodny Cajuste, West Virginia
  • Bobby Evans, Oklahoma
  • Chuma Edoga, USC
  • Dennis Daley, South Carolina

Each of the five prospects mentioned above project as starting talent down the line. For the Cardinals who have a solid, yet oft-injured starting tackle duo in D.J. Humphries and Marcus Gilbert, taking a tackle that could develop behind the two and offer potential as a spot-starter is a good idea.

And for the wide receivers that I could see falling here;

  • Emanuel Hall, Missouri (pictured)
  • DaMarkus Lodge, Ole Miss
  • Andy Isabella, UMass
  • Terry McLaurin, Ohio State
  • Jakobi Meyers, N.C. State

All five I view as potential day-one starters, which may increase their draft stocks. However, each may be available there. If the Cards want a slot receiver, Isabella and Meyers would be good options.
