Since I can’t go out to my favorite neighborhood bar (The Sleepy Whale in Chandler) and order a draft beer for the foreseeable future, I figured I’d talk about some other “draft” options today, especially with NFL draft chatter ratcheting up every day.
Heading into last year’s draft, the Cardinals were in the catbird seat with the #1 overall selection. The entire draft pool was available to them when they selected Heisman winner Kyler Murray and changed the trajectory of the franchise.
This year, the Cardinals are picking at #8 and we now have our quarterback of the future, which means that the pool of players we’ll be picking from is much shallower.
