Wonder if we could trade our two R5 picks and move up to grab another now. Still some decent DTs and a promising QB out there I would like for us to get.

This... Idk what everyone sees in Johnson but he doesn't run anyone over... Sure he can catch the ball but last time I checked so can Ellington so y would you draft the same idea of a player we have?

Maybe they will rotate them?

This...I thought BASK stated they wanted to find another RB similar to Ellington, so they don't have to change scheme when he's out of the game.

That doesn't translate into any running success because Ellington was most productive as a change of pace back than a featured back n I'm assuming the same for Johnson... If he turns out to be outstanding I'll come on here n apologize like crazy cuz I do like his character and his story about how Iowa didn't recruit him so he made them pay n I obviously want to see him succeed as a cardinal

IMO the Packers had a rough draft so far. A safety who's allergic to tackling, a corner who has played 1 year of college football and the most inconsistent WR in the draft (Montgomery).

All A's so far according to these guys http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap30...fl-draft-day-1-quicksnap-grades-for-nfc-teams

Arizona Cardinals
Draft pick: OL D.J. Humphries (No. 24 overall), DE Markus Golden (No. 58 overall), RB David Johnson (No. 86 overall)
Day 1 grade: A+
Day 2 grade: A-
Day 3 grade: A
The skinny: NFL Media analyst Daniel Jeremiah is one of many who believe Humphries is the best offensive tackle in the draft. At pick No. 24, he's an absolute steal for the Cardinals, especially considering they didn't have to trade up to get him. Humphries will fill an area of need and help the recovering Carson Palmer breathe a bit easier by keeping pass rushers at bay. Golden has great upside and might wind up having a better career than his former teammates at Missouri, such Broncos' first-round pick Shane Ray. Johnson is a perfect fit for Bruce Arians and can fill the big-back role while also being a top-notch threat as a pass catcher.

Cards will go QB, WR, S, P, and OL and then try to sell us that they were happy with their draft.

From Kent Somers article at azcentral dated 5-1-15.

The Cardinals traded down three spots in the second round with the Ravens and took Golden, receiving a fifth-round pick in return.

That gives them six picks in the last four rounds of the draft today. In Friday evening's press conference, Keim twice mentioned the possibility of trading up at some point today, maybe into the top of the fourth round.
