3 players the Arizona Cardinals wish they could take from NFC West teams
By Brandon Ray
For the past two seasons, the Arizona Cardinals have gone 8-26 and have just one division win in that span against the Los Angeles Rams. They have not won the NFC West since 2015 when Carson Palmer was under center, and have only finished 2nd in the division twice since then. The Cardinals have been looking up to teams in the NFC West and have not taken the division as their own. Across the league, we have teams like the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers who have won consecutive division championships in recent memory.
The Cardinals had the chance to win the NFC West in 2021 after starting out 7-0 before going 4-6 down the stretch, placing second in the division and being eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
With the Cardinals looking to get a fresh start heading into the NFL combine, there are a great amount of holes to fill on both sides of the ball. The NFC West is loaded with lots of talent, especially from the three other teams within the division that would easily upgrade the Cardinals in various ways.
