Arizona Cardinals add to defense with fourth-round selection

With the first of their two picks in the fourth round of the NFL draft on Saturday, the Arizona Cardinals addressed their defensive front with selection of former Utah defensive lineman Leki Fotu with the 114th overall pick.

Fotu is 6-feet-5 inches and 330 pounds and was an active rugby player who trained with the U.S. national team in London.

He played only one year of football in high school at Herman High, but was a first-team, All-Utah selection.

He got better and better upon learning the game and as a junior at Utah, earned first-team All Pac-12 honors with 33 tackles and three sacks in 14 games.
