How These Ratings Apply to the Cardinals:
* If Ron Wolfley is correct. he thinks the Cardinals are enamored with QB Patrick Mahomes (#4 QB-Mayock) and very much like QB Deshaun Watson (#2 QB) and QB Mitchell Trubisky (#3 QB).
It is quite possible that one of those 3 QB will be available at #13.
* However, according to Wolfley, the Cardinals are very high on alpha ILB Reuben Foster (#1 ILB) and "Nick Martin-esque" G Forrest Lamp (#1 Interior OL).
* He goes on to say that the Cardinals feel they can add good players at S, CB, WR and TE in subsequent rounds.
If we go by the players that the Cardinals have shown particular interest in, throughout the draft process, then a likely draft board at each of the first 4 rounds could be (in no particular order, per se):
1. QB Patrick Mahomes, ILB Reuben Foster or G Forrest Lamp
2. FS Josh Jones, CB **** Tabor, CB Sidney Jones, QB Davis Webb
3. WR Carlos Henderson, WR ArDarious Stewart, TE Bucky Hodges, LB Duke Riley
4. LB Elijah Lee, TE Michael Roberts, RB Donnell Pumphrey
If you had your pick of these players---who would you take?
To me the safest, most immediate impact picks would be:
1. Forrest Lamp, G, Western Kentucky
2. **** Tabor, CB, Florida
3. ArDarious Stewart, WR, Alabama
4. Elijah Lee, LB, Kansas St.
The Wild Cards---gambling on greatness:
1. Reuben Foster, ILB, Alabama
2, Sidney Jones, CB, Washington
3. Bucky Hodges, TE, Virginia Tech
4. Donnell Pumphrey, RB, San Diego St.
But I would still be delighted with:
1. Patrick Mahomes, QB, Texas Tech
2. Josh Jones, FS, North Carolina St. (if Budda Baker is off the board)
3. Duke Riley, LB, LSU
4. Carlos Henderson, WR, Louisiana Tech (I think because of how deep the WR class is, he could be here)
