My god, if there is a massive can't miss left side OT take him. Otherwise a 7 foot WR that runs a 4.2 40 and has hands that can palm a football!

Keim is sweating bullets.
Remove Keim! He will screw this pick up, the Cards were desperate for a QB and had teams take Mahommes and Watson and left them with Reddick. Keim was happy he had Reddick above them on his board. He also wanted Abdullah over DJ. Dont trust him with this pick and draft

1sr rder: Cooper Guard, Nkemdiche DT and LB Reddick

2nd rders Niklas TE, Brandon Williams CB and Minter Lber

3rd rders B Williams CB and Chad Williams

This team is just loaded with young talent and going to be contenders any day now lol

Not a Keim defender but another way to look at that list...~70% of his picks are still playing in the NFL. A lot are just playing on other teams.

Not sure what the hit rate is for drafting but out of 200 players each year, there are high rates of misses.

Do we give him credit for trading for Palmer, drafting Honey Badger, drafting DJ (although he wanted a guy that is out of the league now), trading up for Rosen, trading for Chandler Jones, etc?

Keims lack of early success in the draft, Ill have to find the article, but AZ ranked around one of the lowest in early rd success in the draft; a complete inability to build a O line and his complacency to sit idol, is a problem. He got late rds, trades and prove it deals down, but as a overall team builder he is not good.

Yeah facts suck. What you think the NFL draft is and what the NFL draft really is are two diffrent things.

It's a total crap shoot

However, when your GM makes questionable decisions, he tips the scales against the organization. It makes no sense to draft a DE and turn him into a LB. That sort of choice invites disaster and immediately raises questions.

I think the reality is this front office needs a complete overhaul. The Cards have simply extended the Graves era and while they had some success in the standings, it has always been putting bandaids on self inflicted wounds.

Coaches do that. BA is the same guy that took Bucannon and asked him to gain 20lbs and play LB when Washington got suspended and Dansby left out of need.

That's not a GM thing

If we finish in a tie with SF and Oakland and pick third based on tiebreakers, where do we pick in the second round?

With the current scheduling formula, we share all but two games with our division rivals. Therefore, to project the strength of schedule tie-breaker with SF, we only need to focus on those two differences.

We will have played WSH & ATL.
They will have played NYG & TB.

Our two opponents have 10 combined wins, plus another projected win for ATL against us. Theirs have 7 combined wins. For the higher pick, root for the Giants and Bucs. Root against the Redskins and Falcons. At least this is how I understand the draft order tie-breaker.

I LOVE the draft talk....look at it this way....when do we ever have time to talk about the draft after the Super Bowl....Jan, Feb, March, April till the 25th....only 4 months to yap about it.
Gotta love a season where the draft talk started in November :#
Maybe, just maybe it's time to find a new team that doesn't live in the gutter...it is an option
