That would have happened if Kiem was still here. Wright did not have a 1st round grade, but he would have said he was their #1 choice, so grades don't matterPossibly would have ended up with Wright if we didn't trade back up.

If Johnson is an all pro LG and Jones takes over for Humphries at somepoint this season due to injury, the left side it set for years. Get the best center tomorrow and then Hernandez is the worst peice on the line.It just depends if Johnson actually winds up at LT. I don't think he's a LT I think there's a reason he didn't play there until his junior year.
I think Wright can play RT, I don't think Johnson is a Tackle I think he's a guard.
I guess we'll see, again hope I'm wrong
Ime not saying anything bad either you build the lines 1st and Paris was the number 1 ranked tackle so we will see what happens the rest of the way it is refreshing to see them move up and down the board instead of standing pat for a changeIt just depends if Johnson actually winds up at LT.

I think you're wrong on his athleticism. I think he oozes athleticism for a longer guy.interesting the CBS report on him says he relies too much on athleticism and needs to be better technically. I've always felt one of his issues is he's not athletic enough to be a LT. So I hope CBS is right, if he's more athletic than I think, it improves his chances to play LT.
He was not going to be there at 12.He was projected mid first round between 15 and 20 on most of the mocks.
From what's being said his issue was consistency, not a great technical guy, which you can teach.
I think Paris is a guard and if he stays there he'll be good but then you ask should you trade up to 6 to get a guard? But if he winds up as a good LT I'll eat my words. Just never saw it from him in college. If the goal is to protect Kyler you take a guy known for pass blocking not a guy known for run blocking but we'll see. He's huge.

100%. I liked Skoronski a little more but this was my #2 guy.He’s a day one starter who can play guard or tackle on either side. He’s a foundational player that will be in AZ for many years. The Cards were never sold on Anderson. It will be interesting to see how he fares in Texas. I told you guys early on this is a conservative front office. Taking Johnson was the safest top 10 pick. He’s a solid if not flashy pick.
I'm surprised also
Never would have thought that
Do we not have a second now?
Pretty sure Hump has only this year left on his contractI do not see Humphries going anywhere and think this is more about not trusting Jones and knowing Beachum will be leaving
Weird Russ, everything you say about him seems to be the opposite of what I read about him.He was projected mid first round between 15 and 20 on most of the mocks.

He’s signed through 2025. But we could cut him after this year and it would be a $13.8 M cap hit (not great, but not terrible). I think it’s very likely this is DJs last year here after taking Paris. DJ has about $16M cash due and $22.9M cap hits annually in ‘24 and ‘25.Pretty sure Hump has only this year left on his contract
That’s because he’s going to the Arizona Buckeyes lolI really liked his interview. Seems to be legitimately stoked to be a cardinal. Seems to be a guy that’s going to work hard. He sold me.
Would still like to know how he compares to other recent highly drafted olinemen.
