5 potential 1st-round targets if the Cardinals trade down

Other possibilities

Lately, it does not seem to make sense to draft a running back in Round 1, but both De’Andre Swift and Jonathan Taylor would seem to be good fits.

CJ Henderson and Andrew Thomas might have made this list a few days ago, but recent rumors make it seem like they may not be there in the middle of the first round.

The first round might be too high, but Ezra Cleveland’s stock has steadily risen and Arizona could pounce on him if they trade down deeper into Round 1.
