Draft Countdown

● By Brad Menendez
The time is nearly upon us: the holidays and NFL DRAFT SEASON! In this article, I’ll answer the question of whom the Arizona Cardinals could be selecting in the 2025 NFL Draft. As of the writing of this article, they are currently sitting with the 20th pick, and though they are looking like a strong contender for a playoff spot, their roster still has some needs to address. When I looked at the makeup of the roster, I ordered their priorities in terms of positions to target as the following: CB, EDGE, IOL, DT, WR, OT, S, ILB, OLB, QB, TE, RB. If you look at their roster in terms of PFF grading, their defense is the weaker of the two units, and specifically, they are suspect in coverage. They did target some defensive line help early in the 2024 NFL Draft but you can never have enough defensive linemen!
