Cards Fans: We need to draft some talented players.

Cards: Drafted the best player in the draft.

Also Cards Fans: Can’t believe we drafted that talented guy with no other talent on the team.
It's the old saying

You can please some of them all the time

You can please all of them some of the time

Defense feels like more re-shuffling of chairs on the Titanic deck.

From Bilal Nichols to Ray Lopez
From Dalvin Tomlinso to Andrew Billings
From Jalen Thompson to Andrew Wingard
From Akeem Davis-Gaither to Jack Gibbens

Minus CC, the defense feels exactly the same with just a few different names. :(
Most of them played significant snaps in very good defenses
Wingard was part of an élite secondary
Gibbens too in a top 5 defense
All of them are upgrades over what we had

Your criticism is that he’s good at a job we expect of runningbacks? Weird take.
I just think the more hits of any kind he takes, the sooner he’s done. The NFL pass rush guys strength/speed combo makes it even worse when the receiver of the impact is stationary, not moving away.

So yeah, of course. But that’s also literally the description of a RB’s job. And he’s good at it. So . . . adding that as a worry or a criticism is kind of a big nothing burger. No? It’s not a love-specific concern. It doesn’t mean anything in regards to roster building. And it doesn’t reflect whether draft slot was good, neutral or bad.

With a top three pick you take a quarterback, offensive tackle or edge rusher. None of the available players at those positions were deemed worthy of being drafted third overall which is probably why the Cardinals were unable to trade down.

I would've reached for Kadyn Proctor.
