The perceived need at cornerback for the Arizona Cardinals caused many to believe the team would use the 13th or 45th pick in the 2017 NFL Draft on a cornerback.
Well, after Haason Reddick was taken 13th and the Cardinals traded up for safety Budda Baker to take at 36, it became apparent the Cardinals belief of addressing the cornerback position was vastly different than the fans.
Fast forward to today and the Cardinals have added a cornerback, Jumal Rolle, in free agency.
Rolle is the low cost, low risk, low investment, high upside signing the Cardinals prefer at corner, over investing another draft pick for a player who will have to learn to play the NFL game.
