Here’s a “what if.” What if the Jets don’t take Arvell Reese at #2?
The 2026 NFL draft is upon us. This is called “draft week,” and all sorts of things occur. Suddenly, healthy players have injury scares, athletes continue to rise and fall on draft big boards, and NFL head coaches are seen in hot tubs with the media. For the Arizona Cardinals, this is a critical draft. […]
2026 NFL Draft Rumors: Trade market may force Arizona Cardinals to make the pick at three
With a day left before the Arizona Cardinals make their pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the rumors continue to fly. The Cardinals have been working to move down and secure more picks, many believe to draft Ty Simpson at some point in the first round. However, as we close into draft day, those rumors […]
Prospect linked to the Cardinals may have a flaw
The Arizona Cardinals own one of the prized draft spots in the entire draft, which will begin Round 1 on Thursday night in Prime Time. The first two picks are pretty much a well-known fact, so realistically, this year’s NFL draft begins with the Cardinals at #3. There has also been a ton of noise […]
History of the NFL Draft
NFL teams build their roster in numerous ways. First, selecting college players via the draft. Secondly, signing free agents during the free agency period. Thirdly, trades for players with other clubs. In fourth place, is clubs can claim players off the waiver wire. Another method is by signing players who participated in another pro football […]
An All-Offense Cardinals draft: What if?
The Arizona Cardinals decided that an offensive-minded coach was in order going forward and hired Mike LaFleur away from the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams and San Francisco 49ers are known for their offensive efforts, and now, that strategy and scheme is going to be part of the Cardinals’ offense going forward. LaFleur is ready […]
Growing speculation Arizona Cardinals could take running back with third overall pick
When the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft comes to a close Thursday night, one thing is for certain, the Arizona Cardinals rumors will be dead. However, before that happens we are going to continue to get inundated with reports about what they will do with the third overall pick. If it is not […]
Cardinals Rough Draft: QB Cole Payton
The Arizona Cardinals may or may not need to bring in and develop a young quarterback. Or perhaps, they may wait until next year’s college draft. This year’s crop is top-heavy, and then it is a quagmire of developmental guys. Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort may not want to develop a young signalcaller, and instead draft […]
Cardinals Rough Draft: S Michael Taaffe
The Arizona Cardinals are in need of another safety. Jalen Thompson unfortunately left in free agency and the team signed Andrew Wingard away from the Philadelphia Eagles. But every defensive backfield needs three capable safeties. Currently in the safety room are Pro Bowler Budda Baker, Kitan Crawford, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, and Joey Blount. RELATED: SAFETY BUD […]
Okay, let’s say the Cardinals trade the #3 pick to the Cowboys. Who does Arizona pick in the first round now?
For the past two weeks, it has been rumored that Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys has his sights on either RB Jeremyiah Love out of Notre Dame, or EDGE rusher David Bailey of Texas Tech, a local kid. And so, here at Revenge of the Birds, we took that thought and made an article […]
Cardinals Rough Draft: S Bud Clark
What is the status of the Arizona Cardinals’ safety room? Budda Baker is one of the league’s best. His partner in crime was Jalen Thompson, who played well but was on the free agent list and found a new home very quickly. So far in free agency, the franchise inked Andrew Wingard from the Philadelphia […]
Jacoby Brissett not attending offseason workouts, wants new contract
The Arizona Cardinals offseason is going swimmingly, in the sense that they are drowning. After moving on from the head coach, quarterback, but somehow retaining the GM and defensive coordinator, they also seemingly were going to stay with the quarterback who led them to that 1-11 finish after the starter was “lost to injury”. Well, […]
Diving deep into the possibility of the Cardinals trading their #3 pick with Dallas
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones always seems focused on his legacy. Certainly, one part is the fact that the ‘Boys won three Super Bowls during the heyday of Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin, and Troy Aikman. But those titles were when? The final one was Super Bowl XXX, played on January 28, 1996, at the conclusion […]
Arizona Cardinals pick up fifth-year option on Paris Johnson Jr.
The Arizona Cardinals have done the expected, picked up the fifth-year option on their left tackle, Paris Johnson Jr. From Mike Garafolo: PJJ has been the one staple along with Hjalte Froholdt along the offensive line since the beginning of the Monti Ossenfort era, the issue for Paris has not been his play, but instead […]

As we are finally a week away, the Arizona Cardinals and the rest of the NFL are going to end the parade of 2026 NFL Mock Drafts. Yet, when Mel Kiper Jr. talks, we listen. Mel dropped a new two-round 2026 NFL Mock Draft and has the Arizona Cardinals sticking and picking at three, but […]
NFL owners’ collusion on the Kyler Murray contract? Nope
All kinds of things are happening in the NFL right now. The draft is right around the corner. Free agency is officially still in play, although the signings are few. New coaches are getting settled in. Players are on vacation in exotic places like Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Nassau. RELATED: DIVING INTO MURRAY’S SIGNING WITH […]
Cardinals Rough Draft: EDGE Derrick Moore
The Arizona Cardinals could use another stud at the opposite side of Josh Sweat. What would occur if both sides exploded off the snap? As you look at Arizona’s “shopping list” compared to what will be available in Round 3, it is extremely possible the Cardinals take an EDGE rusher at pick #65 to satisfy […]
Arizona Cardinals trade down, add to offensive line and get their new franchise quarterback
Happy Tuesday one and all. We have seen a number of scenarios for the Arizona Cardinals in different 2026 NFL Mock Drafts and one that is becoming more and more consistently mocked is the Arizona Cardinals moving down in the 2026 NFL Draft. Gennaro Filice dropped a new 2026 NFL Mock Draft that has the […]
Cardinals Rough Draft: OT Caleb Lomu
What a good offseason the Arizona Cardinals have had this year. At season’s end, the offensive line was viewed as a dumpster fire. Both guard spots had huge issues, along with OT Kelvin Beachum. So, GM Monti Ossenfort rolled up his sleeves, opened the checkbook, and signed some seasoned veterans. He brought in the best […]

Cardinals Rough Draft: S Caleb Downs
The Arizona Cardinals want to change their defense going into 2026. Lack of good tackling was an issue last year. So was the run defense and pass coverage of tight ends from the linebackers. Last year, Arizona ranked #27 in overall defense and #24 in pass defense. This offseason, the team lost several key players […]

Cardinals former kicker nails another 4-point field goal
The United Football League (UFL) is in full swing. They have some different rules this year, and that is by design.

Cardinals Rough Draft: C Parker Brailsford
The Arizona Cardinals don’t center a new center. Veteran Hjalte Froholdt is doing a great job, and the franchise isn’t looking to replace players who are doing their job. Day 3 guys usually are earmarked for backup spots. Lord knows that the offensive line will go through a lot of bodies each season. And so, […]
