Cardinals have 3 1st-round picks after trade with Vikings in new mock draft

The Cardinals miss out on all the top WRs but build up their defense with three first-round picks in this mock draft after a trade.

The Arizona Cardinals should have it very easy in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft. With three quarterbacks expected to be selected with the first three picks of the draft, the Cardinals can simply select Ohio State receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. and not stress.

However, general manager Monto Ossenfort loves to make deals and the Minnesota Vikings both have a need at quarterback after Kirk Cousins departed in free agency and have, after a trade last week, two first-round picks in this draft.

In a new mock draft by Doug Farrar for Touchdown Wire, The Cardinals agree to move back from the fourth overall pick and get the Vikings’ picks at No. 11 and No. 23, giving Arizona three selections in the first round.

Here is how that scenario might play out.
