With 24 hours to go until the first round of the NFL draft, we’ve heard just about every scenario for the Arizona Cardinals at some point. The Cards’ names have come up in quite a few trade up rumors in the past few weeks, while others believe a move down is more likely.
In such a top-heavy first round, it’s impossible to ignore the trade-up rumors, particularly after such a quiet free agency period for the Cards. Perhaps the team has been waiting to make their big splash in the draft.
One possibility for the Cardinals, should one of their coveted first-round prospects fall out of the top ten, is the Houston Texans. Sitting at pick 13, the Texans’ pick is within striking distance of landing a top prospect, while avoiding giving up a king’s ransom to move into the Top-10.
