Respectfully Disagree. No bigger need than OL. I can even stretch this to say if we had half way decent OL Rosen would have had been more successful and we would have gotten more value than this awful trade

NFL draft profile: Zach Allen
BC's Zach Allen is a good run-defender who locates the ball and disengages in time to pursue and converts speed to power as a pass-rusher.
Pre-Draft Analysis
As a run-defender, Allen gets into the lineman's pads, uses his long arms to lock out, locates the ball and disengages in time to pursue. He's more quick than fast and converts speed to power as a pass-rusher. He's a scheme-versatile defensive end with the potential to play LDE in a base four-man front and 5-technique in a base three-man front.
Post-Draft Analysis
The Cardinals were expected to bolster the defensive line in this draft, especially with Robert Nkemdiche tearing his ACL in December. Allen is a perfect fit at defensive end in Vance Joseph's base 3-4 defense and has the potential to develop into an effective interior pass-rusher who kicks inside in Joseph's sub-packages. -- Steve Muench

I don’t think this is necessarily a bad thing. I find pff pretty accurate.

Wouldn't be surprised if the Cardinals move Zach Allen inside.

They play a hybrid and he has lined up as 3-4 D-end

at 281 lbs this seems likely
I am thinking this is maybe Josh Mauro with better pash rush skills

3x pro bowler with a couple of 12 sack seasons? I'll take it.

His sack of McNabb, with a broken foot, will always be my favorite memory of KVB.

I like this pick. Seems like a hard worker with some athleticism and a lot of love for the game. He isn't flashy, but he appears to have a high floor, and we can't keep busting on these mid-round picks. I would much rather have a good chance of a double than a small chance for a homerun right now.

the only issue with this pick is that it doesn't upgrade our 32nd ranked OL.
Nkemdiche canrt be counted on and may not be ready to play till after week 10

In fairness when they draft O-line Levi Brown usually happens

Yes....but there are more bodies on the OL than DL.
If Humphries and Gilbert stay healthy (big if) than the Cardinals are good at Tackle. The interior should be better with Sweezy. Cunningham was respectable at tackle. There are what? 19 OL?
The Cardinals might take developmental guys later have rely on Kugler to coach them up.
Wanted Winovich but this kid is a nasty baller and a solid pick.
