3 players Rams should fear Cardinals selecting at No. 1 in 2019 NFL Draft
By Dan Parzych
1. Kyler Murray
As mentioned before, one of the most popular topics of debate over the last few weeks has been whether the Cardinals would be better off going with Murray over Rosen at quarterback.
While the argument can be made that Rosen was in a difficult position last season as a rookie, and it’s unfair to criticize him with the lack of weapons Arizona provided him with on offense, the last thing they want to do is miss out on the next big thing in Murray.
With all due respect to Rosen since there’s still plenty of time for him to develop into the proper NFL quarterback, Murray seems be on a whole different level, both talent and potential wise.
It was already impressive for Murray to throw for 4,361 yards with 42 touchdown passes as a junior with Oklahoma in 2018, but watching him rush for 1,000+ yards as well on top of 12 touchdowns shows why Arizona is considering this possibility.
After looking at all of the other quarterbacks, including Goff, across the division, the addition of Murray on the Cardinals could make the NFC West race even more competitive for years to come.
But first, Arizona needs to decide about Rosen, and whether the youngster is worth giving another shot in 2019, or if starting from scratch with Murray would be the better option.
