Arizona Cardinals
1. SS Deone Buccanon
2. TE Troy Niklas
3. DE Kareem Martin
3. WR John Brown
4. QB Logan Thomas
5. DE Ed Stinson
6. WR Walt Powell
Best Pick: Deone Buccannon, Troy Niklas
Worst Pick: Logan Thomas
Grade: B+
Buccannon makes the Arizona Cardinals secondary a lot scarier and won’t be the only team in the division with an elite secondary. Niklas gives the Cardinals a big man tight end to pair with big receivers Michael Floyd and Larry Fitzgerald.
Thomas played inconsistent throughout his college career, and if the Cardinals were planning on getting Palmer’s replacement in this draft, there were better options. If anybody can fix a quarterback though, it’s Bruce Arians.
