In recent years the Arizona Cardinals have taken some key players with their draft picks. In 2019 it was all about making the right decision with the #1 overall pick when they selected Quaterback, Kyler Murray. In the 2020 draft, they made a splash again, not only with players, but with some style points too.Â
Whatever your thoughts are on the Arizona Cardinals, if you’re a fan, you’re all-in on what the team is doing right now. The pieces of the puzzle really started coming together when they selected star quarterback Kyler Murray who leaned heavy on his teammates, Christian Kirk & Larry Fitzgerald. The 2019/2020 season was electric at times, but the Cardinals still finished with a disappointing 5-10-1 record. So what will the 2020/2021 season bring to the Arizona Cardinals and what type of impact can our new rookies make on this up and coming squad?
