I read this article a week ago, and it has stuck with me. GMs love to trade up in the NFL draft, but it's often a mistake: Why their reasoning doesn't match reality NFL general managers often pat themselves on the back for draft trade-ups, and they use similar quotes to do it. But they're usually wrong. www.espn.com One take away from watching the draft and living on ASFN all weekend was how often I read the phrase “smartest man in the room” as a disparagement when we traded down. I think this philosophy is backwards. Drafting is imprecise and a first round pick is only 58% likely to b ..read more

There is a bit of discussion about the trade down in the second round, where we dropped 8 spots and grabbed another 3rd rounder (79). We then traded back on that third rounder (to 82) and added a 6th (191). On the board was KoolAid, Cooper, JPJ, and Lassiter. To evaluate this trade, IMO, you can't just look at the board and names in a vacuum. In theory, we flipped 35 for 43, 82, and 191. We moved back 8 spots and grabbed two more picks. First, the pick at 43. MadMax seems like he's... Read more ..read more

77 players listed on our current roster and just picked 12 more - anyone know what a dozen draftees cost? or how many do we see making the squad? active roster + unsigned rookies The Official Site of the Arizona Cardinals Arizona Cardinals Player Roster: The official source for the players on the Cardinals' roster www.azcardinals.com and correct me if im wrong but if we do dip our toes back in the free agency pool - it'll be defense - but how deep is the pool on the defensive end? are we expecting top tier talent or stop gaps? where would you spend it? btw here's who we've signed so far ..read more

Kiper gave only two teams a solid A for this year's draft, the Cardinals & Eagles. His last statement regarding the Cardinal's draft, "All in all, Ossenfort used 12 picks and hit all of the Cardinals' top needs, including throwing four defensive backs at a porous pass D. This is a well-rounded and super-talented class." He also gave the Steelers & Commanders A ..read more

When we were calling players to say we were picking them, Bidwill sounded like his usual cornball self. Typically I scroll through him speaking. I was too lazy this year though and heard him repeatedly saying that he was excited to meet these guys. I optimistically took it as he wasn’t allowed in the interviews. If I’m wrong and dreaming, don’t wake me up. I need to bask in my ignorance a bit longer. This is a massive step in the right direction. Great job, Monti ..read more

Any thoughts here? With a 12 person draft class, is there anyone even worth considering? Maybe a Slovis or Tagovailoa for a camp QB arm and competition with Tune? Maybe a kicker ..read more
