Former top pick adept at disappointing Arizona Cardinals

You can bet that there were more than a few high-fives exchanged in the Arizona Cardinals’ “War Room” back in 2016. After all, it’s not often that a projected top-10 draft pick tumbles all the way down to the 29th slot. It has become abundantly clear, however, why that happened to the highly-touted Robert Nkemdiche.

A lack of talent has not been a problem for the Cards’ defensive tackle. In fact, on the rare occasions that Nkemdiche has apoeared on the playing field, the former “Ole Miss” star has been impossible to block at times. Watching him perform has brought back memories of the great Eric Swann, a former Cardinal who terrorized opposing offenses during the 1990’s.
