Arizona Cardinals 2018 NFL Draft tracker and highlights
By Erik Lambert
The Arizona Cardinals 2018 NFL draft tracker is bound to stay busy throughout all three days of action as the team tries to plug several holes.
It’s hard not to look at what’s coming as a full-scale rebuilt. No team loses as much talent, both on the roster and coaching staff as they have without needed time to replace the losses. Their starting quarterback is gone. Their head coach is gone. They even decided to cut one of their best defensive playmakers. If that’s not an indication of change, nothing is.
GM Steve Keim and new head coach Steve Wilks have a monumental task ahead of them. They absolutely need a productive draft to get things off on the right foot. The good news is they have four picks in the first three rounds. The bad news? Even that might not be enough to plug the sheer number of holes that have opened up across the roster.
Below, Cardinals fans will find everything they need for draft night, including their picks, roster needs, and any trades made during the 2018 NFL Draft.
