Revenge of the Birds
The Arizona Cardinals move down and still beef up the interior defensive line.
1800 miles in 9 days and now back to normal, hopefully.
We should be back at it now.
The Arizona Cardinals and the rest of the NFL descend upon Indianapolis for the 2025 NFL Combine.
To get us prepped, we have a new 2025 NFL Mock Draft from PFF.
I love this one, but think the Cardinals need one more pick instead of that sixth.
22. *TRADE* Arizona Cardinals: DI Kenneth Grant, Michigan
Trade terms: Cardinals receive 2025 first-round pick (No. 22), 2025 third-round pick (No. 86) and 2025 sixth-round pick (No. 183); Chargers receive 2025 first-round pick (No. 16)
Arizona may make multiple defensive line selections in this draft. Grant would give them a massive run-stopping presence on the inside, finishing tied for seventh among Power Four defensive tackles in PFF run-defense grade in 2024. The Cardinals’ defensive tackle unit ranked 25th in the NFL in that same metric.
Per the trade value chart, the Cardinals get 958.2 and give up 1000 points.
So, what should have been is Chargers give up No. 22, No. 86, No.124.
However, I won’t quibble too much because I love the move down and the addition of Grant.
What do you think?
