#4) Cardinals do not replace DJ Humphries
Now everyone may be thinking, "The Arizona Cardinals already have Paris Johnson Jr. in line; why draft another lineman?"
•
The reason: DJ Humphries has regressed, thanks to injuries. He also has a massive contract that does not end until the end of the 2025 season. That is a disastrous combination that Monti Ossenfort has to address.
Kiper had initially mock-drafted Tyler Guyton, but he has now pivoted towards upgrading the Cardinals' defense instead with Darius Robinson, a defensive tackle from Missouri. However, the pivot is less surprising in retrospect – they were among the worst-defending teams in football, ranking dead-last in average QBR and rushing yards allowed and third-to-last in sacks.
