The NFL draft is later this month and the Arizona Cardinals will be putting together their player rankings. NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah recently updated his top 50 players and we broke the top 50 down by position.

As the Cardinals have different positional needs, let's take a look at each position group and who might be a target with either of their two top picks, No. 16 and No. 47 overall.

Let's look at linebacker, a position where the Cardinals still have questions. Kyzir White is still a free agent and they signed Akeem Davis-Gaither and Mykal Walker, but neither was a full-time starter last season.

In Jeremiah's top 50 players, only two are linebackers.

Linebackers in Daniel Jeremiah's top 50 prospects​

  1. Jihaad Campbell, Alabama: No. 9 overall
  2. Carson Schwesinger, UCLA: No. 44 overall

Who could the Cardinals get?​


Well, the Cardinals could be in a position in either Round 1 or Round 2 to get either Campbell or Schwesinger.

There is a collective belief currently that Campbell is sliding and could fall. In the right scenario, if the Cardinals trade back and were interested in Campbell, they could land a dynamic playmaker for years to come.
