Cardinals | Arizona not targeting Kyler Murray? Sat Apr 20, 11:11 PM
Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray is no longer likely to be selected by the Arizona Cardinals with the No. 1 pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, according to Pete Prisco of CBSSports.com. 'All of a sudden, they are pulling back, and from what I've been told, they are going to go in a different direction,' Prisco said. 'They are not going to draft Kyler Murray.'
| Footballguys view: Less than a week before the draft and that's a bold proclamation. Everything seemed to have the Cardinals leaning towards taking Murray no.1 overall. If that's not the case, then perhaps a team like Miami (no.13 overall) would be in place later in the first round. The Raiders (no.4 overall) could also be interested if Murray doesn't go off the board first. |
Cardinals | Josh Rosen says he'll respect decision Thu Apr 18, 01:13 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Josh Rosen has been the subject of trade rumors with the team reportedly eyeing Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray with the No. 1-overall draft pick, broke his media silence recently during an interview with Sports Illustrated TV. 'I think when people talk about, like, you can't listen to criticism or don't ever read articles, you have to be aware of what's going on to a certain extent,' Rosen said in a short video clip of the segment posted on Twitter . 'So I definitely understand the situation. I mean it's annoying, but it is what it is. Football is a business, and I definitely respect the higher-ups and their decisions.'
| Footballguys view: Rosen doesn't have a choice. The Cardinals may move him on draft day, especially since most believe they will take QB Kyler Murray with the no.1 overall pick. Rosen could find himself in a situation with a team (like the Chargers?) where he has to be a backup and wait for his turn to start again. That's not necessarily a bad thing for the young passer. |

Link to story Cardinals | David Johnson looking to achieve big goal Sat Apr 13, 05:10 PM
Arizona Cardinals RB David Johnson said he still wants to post at least 1,000 rushing yards and 1,000 receiving yards in the same season.
| Footballguys view: Johnson is coming off somewhat of a down season in 2018. He should touch the ball as much as possible with the Cardinals new offense in 2019. Johnson was close to the 1,000/1,000 club in 2016 with 1,128 yards rushing and 852 yard receiving. Only two running backs in NFL history have ever achieved that (Roger Craig, Marshall Faulk) but Johnson could get there if he stays healthy this season. Even off a disappointing year, Johnson is still a RB1 for Fantasy GMs. |

Cardinals | David Johnson excited for offense Thu Apr 11, 09:20 PM
Arizona Cardinals RB David Johnson said he is excited to work out of the shotgun in head coach Kliff Kingsbury's offense. 'I think it really opens up more space for me and makes me able to read the defense a little bit more,' Johnson said.
| Footballguys view: Johnson had a disappointing season in 2018 but he still finished as the no.10 fantasy running back in standard-scoring leagues. This new offense should put him front and center, and Johnson should be a RB1 for Fantasy GMs once again. |

Link to story Cardinals | Kyler Murray visiting Arizona Tue Apr 9, 11:40 AM
Arizona Cardinals QB Kyler Murray is visiting the Arizona Cardinals Tuesday, April 9.
| Footballguys view: Murray is considered the top target for the Cardinals in the 2019 NFL draft. His skill set is perfect for the 'Air Raid' system that new Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury is implementing. |
Cardinals | Miles Boykin to work out for Cards Mon Apr 8, 10:14 PM
Notre Dame WR Miles Boykin is scheduled to participate in private workout with the Arizona Cardinals before the 2019 NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: Boykin has 4.42 speed with a 6'4" 220 pound frame. He can get by defenders and certainly win at the highest point of the catch. Boykin is seen as a third- or fourth-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft. |

Cardinals | Teams have made offers for Josh Rosen Fri Apr 5, 12:27 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Josh Rosen has been the target of at least two trade offers, but the Cardinals are trying to 'save face' and get as a close to a first-round draft pick in return as possible, according to one AFC executive.
| Footballguys view: The Chargers have been rumored to be interested in Rosen and some say they've offered a second-round pick. We should see the Cardinals take QB Kyler Murray with the no.1 overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft. That means Rosen would have to be dealt. |

Cardinals | Josh Rosen expected to report Fri Apr 5, 11:20 AM
Arizona Cardinals QB Josh Rosen is expected to report to offseason workouts Monday, April 8, despite trade speculation. The Cardinals have yet to show a willingness to trade him.
| Footballguys view: The Cardinals are interested in Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray with their no.1 overall pick. If they take Murray, then Rosen is on his way out of Arizona. They may want to get a first-round pick for Rosen but teams may only be willing to deal a second rounder for the 2018 no.10 overall pick. |

Cardinals | Quinnen Williams visiting Arizona Thu Apr 4, 08:11 AM
Alabama DT Quinnen Williams is visiting the Arizona Cardinals Thursday, April 4.
| Footballguys view: Williams is arguably the best player in this year's draft. The Cardinals have the no.1 overall selection and most everyone expects them to take QB Kyler Murray (Oklahoma). If they go in a different direction (or trade down), then Williams would make a fine pick. |
Cardinals | Arizona to meet with safety Wed Apr 3, 07:57 PM
Mississippi State S Johnathan Abram is scheduled to meet with the Arizona Cardinals.
| Footballguys view: Abram is a safety with linebacker tendencies. He loves to hit and that makes him an intimidating presence in the secondary. His playing style could lead to more injuries as he plays with little regard for his personal safety. Abram is seen as a second- or third-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft. |

Cardinals | Nick Bosa meeting with Arizona Fri Mar 29, 07:46 PM
Ohio State DE Nick Bosa is having a dinner meeting with the Arizona Cardinals Friday, March 29, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: The Cardinals have the no.1 overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft, and Bosa is a serious consideration for that spot. We expect the Cardinals to take QB Kyler Murray with that pick and Bosa should quickly be snapped up by the 49ers at no.2 overall. |

Arizona Cardinals TE Ricky Seals-Jones signed his exclusive-rights tender Thursday, March 21.
| Footballguys view: Seals-Jones could become a more interesting fantasy commodity if Kyler Murray goes #1. He had a down 2018 but so did the rest of the Arizona offense. Things can't get any worse. |

Cardinals | Arizona visiting with Kyler Murray Tue Mar 19, 02:41 PM
Former Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray is meeting privately with the Arizona Cardinals Tuesday, March 19. The Cardinals, of course, own the No. 1 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: Murray has been linked to the Cardinals with the no.1 overall pick for some time. New head coach Kliff Kingsbury is bringing the 'Air Raid' offense to the desert and that is a perfect fit for Murray's skill set. We'll see if they go ahead and bring Murray in, thus ending the Josh Rosen era after one season. |

Injuries may have robbed him of the talent that made him a top pick, but we're still curious about his progress but only in super deep dynasty leagues. |

Seattle Seahawks impending free-agent QB Brett Hundley agreed to terms on a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals Tuesday, March 12, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Hundley gets to be the backup to Josh Rosen (both UCLA quarterbacks) for now. They could end up moving Rosen and going with Kyler Murray with the no.1 overall pick. Hundley is athletic and an interesting fit for the 'Air Raid' offense that new head coach Kliff Kingsbury is implementing. |

Ohio State DE Nick Bosa is the player the Arizona Cardinals have 'zeroed in on' following the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: This goes against the 'Kyler Murray is a done deal' at no.1 overall takes that were out there after the combine. Bosa is a player the 49ers covet at no.2 overall, so perhaps the Cardinals are trying to get San Francisco to trade up. Stay tuned. |
