For those of you have walked this journey with me all these years, you know that come April, I like to single out a favorite player in the NFL Draft whom I wish the Cardinals would select (if available).
Here were my last several favorites, dating back to 2011:
- 2011 —- JJ Watt, DE, Wisconsin
- 2012 —- Luke Keuchly, LB, Boston College
- 2013 —- Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia
- 2014 —- Ryan Shazier, LB, Ohio St.
