[BigDavis75]

Love it, we’ve had awful interior rush for what feels like decades.

Backup plan for Walter Nolen because of injuries

that LSU game might have gotten him drafted on its own

I'd rather have a kid from a smaller program who dominated bigger programs, that kids from bigger programs who only seem to dominate lesser programs.

Backup plan for Walter Nolen because of injuries

Maybe their are times that this kid, Nolen and even Stills can line up together. Nolen can take on and split double teams, which can help free this kid up.

For Stills, not Nolen.

Sounds like a guy who can eventually line up next to Walter Nolen and provide some pass rush up the middle on 3rd down.

IMO, Nolen looked like he was carrying too much weight last season. I like quickness in a lineman.

With their fourth round pick, the Cardinals select DT Kaleb Proctor out of Southeastern Louisiana.

First FCS player drafted this year, he dominated with 9 sacks last season. Tested extremely well too with a 9.15 RAS.

I this is Kaleb’s ideal role. His quickness will make teams pay for double teaming Nolen, if they can manage to find ways for these two to play together.

What with injuries last season and the ability he showed in the Dallas game, Nolen is the defender I am most excited about going forward.

Takeaways from talking with newest #AZCardinals DT Kaleb Proctor:

- Wasn’t surprised landing with Cardinals. Cited Top 30 visit and “family type vibe”.

- Believed he could play at the next level even as a small school player. Was first FCS guy off the board. “Playing ball is playing ball.”

- How he makes up for lack of size, “I use my arm length… quickness and my speed. I feel like I bring a twitchiness.”

- Had heavy interest from FBS teams in transfer portal but wanted to finish career with his original teammates

- Says Walter Nolen III is a freak athlete and loved Roy Lopez announcing his pick.

 

[D-Dogg]

I love this pick, especially here. Any mock I had where he was at 104 i grabbed him. Maybe 20% of the time he was there. Closer to the draft he almost never was. I love this kid. If Nolan can stay on the field, Proctor will feast.

 

[Krangodnzr]

He was the guy I wanted here.

 

[TJ]

Awesome

 

[Totally_Red]

Love that he stayed 'true to his school' and his teammates.

I understand but I'd like to see him leaner.

 

[Lomax to Green 84]

Proctor reminds me of Milton Williams. Williams was an undersized, twitched up, small school kid when he was drafted. Actually, Proctor just reminds me of a guy that Howie Roseman would draft. Great selection!!

 

[Carolinacacti]

Really quick any chance he can play outside?

Love the fact Monti continues to draft guys he brought in for visits. He's so transparent with his intentions, yet so many 'experts' want to make up storylines that fans fall for.

Most likely No

 

[Dayman]

Love the pick. Even if he never develops into an every down player, getting a guy with his skillset in the 4th seems like great value.

 

[BurqueCardFan]

For Stills, not Nolen.

Nolen missed 11 games last year due to injury. You have to be available to be a starter…

Since the Darnell Dockett era.

[oaken1]
