The 2025 NFL draft is days away, beginning next Thursday night. Teams are finalizing their draft boards, including the Arizona Cardinals.
As we approach the actual draft, Draft Wire managing editor Jeff Risdon has put together his final player rankings, ranking players 1-250.
This series of stories will break down each position group and list each player on the list, showing where they rank.
Here are the off-ball linebackers. This is a bit of a position of need and there is a prospect they could land early.
Campbell is in the mix for the Cardinals' first-round pick. He is the clear No. 1 linebacker and would be able to start immediately. Schwesinger in Round 2 would fall into that category. The rest of the class is probably depth and not necessarily an upgrade over anyone on the roster currently.

Possibilities for the Cardinals
