Cardinals offseason positional outlook: The receivers

We break down the position’s 2019 and what could come in 2020.

Potential offseason moves

Fitzgerald is back. That is taken care of.

In free agency, the Cardinals probably won’t go and make a huge splash. It would be no surprise at all if the re-signed Cooper or Byrd, but it also wouldn’t be a surprise if they were allowed to move on. After all, Cooper should be replaced by Isabella.

But when it comes to the draft, there is a talented receiver class. Many believe the Cardinals will take a receiver with their first-round pick.

What was clear a year ago was that they needed better play from their receivers. Whether that comes with development of players already on the roster or in a veteran or a big-time rookie next year, it will be necessary for quarterback Kyler Murray’s development in the passing game.
