Another day, more indecisiveness from the Arizona Cardinals. With the start of the 2019 NFL Draft now just two days away, the Cardinals continue to insist they don't know what they're going to do with the first overall pick.
Speaking to the media at a pre-draft press conference Tuesday, new head coach Kliff Kingsbury said the team still hasn't made up its mind, per Steve Wyche of NFL Network.
“We’re still working through things. It is a process. I wouldn’t say the hay is in the barn,” Kingsbury declared.
It's somewhat hard to believe that the Cards still don't know what they're going to do by now, but they've remained united on that front. We heard yesterday that Kingsbury, general manager Steve Keim, and owner Michael Bidwill would be meeting in the next day or so to make the final determination.
Throughout the process, the conventional wisdom has been that the Cardinals would draft Kyler Murray. Over the past couple of weeks, however, momentum has been picking up for them to do something else with the pick.
There was a recent report that the team was fielding trade offers for the pick, and it's possible their very public flirtation with Murray was all a ploy to increase their trade leverage.
There's also a distinct possibility that they draft a defensive line prospect, like Nick Bosa from Ohio State or Quinnen Williams from Alabama. If the Cardinals are going to trade away Josh Rosen to draft Murray, they'll need to make a move soon.
Fortunately with the draft right around the corner, we should finally know their intentions very soon.
