2015 2nd round pick is Markus Golden DE

[BullheadCardFan]

Like it?

 

[BullheadCardFan]

10 Sacks last year

 

[gmabel830]

Pass rusher, but I think early and there were others I liked a lot better on the board

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Mel Kiper says he has big hands, but short arms

 

[TimTheToolmanTebow]

what a complete waste of a pick

4.90 40 yard dash + short arms = LOL

 

[overseascardfan]

Over Eli Harold? Reach IMO.

He must be good then. Probably be all pro.

 

[unseenaz]

Fat and slow on paper. We'll see what happens!

 

[BigRedRage]

More of a coverage linebacker than pass rusher according to radio. That's a head scratcher.
Him and okafor? I feel like we are stocked on olb that can't rush qb

Combat opponent TE threats?

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Sounds like he was picked way too early

WTH is the FO thinking?

 

[ThunderCard]

 

[redheat]

Better than Acho?

 

[Cheesebeef]

so... we draft a clone of OLB we already have. no speed off the edge.

swinging for another single in the second. not a fan.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Seems like we passed on some really good players and this guy would still be there next round

 

[gmabel830]

Gregory goes just after us.. if he works out, ughhhh

 

[splitsecond]

wtf

 

[Mainstreet]

The Cardinals must be thinking they want him now and do not want to chance losing him.

 

[jbeecham]

Obviously Randy Gregory is still on the board, but I still thought the Cards would go with Eli Harold or Owamagbe Odighizuwa before Markus Golden. Golden did have 16.5 sacks in college though.

I though Golden would be available in the 3rd & maybe even the 4th.

Looks like we traded down with the Ravens & picked up an extra 5th rd pick.

Yeah but nothing about him really stands out for them to do this. Wonder what they see in him?

 

[cardsfanmd]

What a waste. Pure trash by Keim. He will never be better than Acho or Okafor. Pretty much a smaller, hetero version of Michael Sam. I'm sooooooooo disgusted. This pick reeks of the Cody Brown reach.

High character.

 

[bg7brd]

Do we even have a OLB scout?

Golden helped himself at Missouri pro day. After running a 4.9 40 at combine, he ran a 4.67,

Every time people went to look at Shane Ray, they found themselves feeling equally impressed with Marcus Golden. I certainly did. He's stronger than Ray, not quite as lightning quick, but he has a nose for the ball and he's a finisher. I love this pick! This guy is a baller!
