9. Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals drastically improved their defense with their first-round selection of Clemson hybrid defender Isaiah Simmons. Last season, Simmons racked up 104 combined tackles, eight sacks and three interceptions to go along with eight passes defended. Arizona could utilize Simmons in the fashion that the Jets utilize Jamal Adams.
Arizona signed outside linebacker Devon Kennard to improve the pass rush, and De’Vondre Campbell.
Cornerback Patrick Peterson is back after he missed six games last year due to suspension.
