so for the last week, Ron Wolfley --

smash-mouth, old school, blood sport Ron Wolfley has been advocating strongly for the Cards #8 pick to be used on …………………………..

Henry Ruggs, WR Alabama

not to go conspiracy theory, but I believe the Cards telegraph to their fans if there will be a pick that the fans aren't ready for, and, Ron Wolfley is a trusted media guy employed by the team

I guess I did go conspiracy theory...…..

Would be a good pick. No complaints from me.

Cardiac · Apr 8, 2020

If you told me that the Cards would spend their first and second round picks on Wrs I would scream and break stuff.

I'd be incredulous if this happened. It'd be like drafting a John Ross.

Except he can actually catch/high point & runs way better routes without having durability concerns with also being in a historic WR class.

John Ross was the opposite in all of that.

Dig into context.

That being said, no WR period.

I'm not making a direct comparison to a player, just the concept that Ross skyrocketed up boards because of his elite speed and has been a #3 at best, contributing a whopping 49 receptions over three years. Even if Ruggs is great, he's still going to be sitting at little to no playing time because of the guys already on the roster.

would not be surprised at all if we go Ruggs at 8; he fits extremely well in KK’s offense.

wolf is just filling up airtime tho

A more athletic John Ross with massive hands and zero medical issues seems ok. Also I trust KK to deploy talent optimally.

Except that Ruggs ran a very diverse route tree, while Ross only ran go routes at UW.

If the argument is that we need someone to go over the top of the D, what else is he going to be running?

I'm not saying he can't be good. I still think he's the third best WR, but I don't want any of them.

Mainstreet · Apr 8, 2020

If true, I think this further supports the Cardinals are looking to trade down from #8.

It's hard to believe Keim will not seize upon the opportunity to add a second round pick. Of course if an unexpected player falls, things can change.

Sorry but that’s just not close to correct.

Cardsfaninlouky · Apr 8, 2020

I can promise whoever we draft, his name won't be John Ross or Josh Rosen lol.

Ruggs, Isabella, K1 & Drake on the field at the same time is super scary. That's even before we get to our #1, 2, or 3 WR.

Who is scared of Isabella?

I guess if 40 times on paper scare you, yes... but in that case you don't even have a number for Kyler.

Great. Now I have that song stuck in my head!

Damn you!!

Ohcrap75 · Apr 8, 2020

NFL is about creating mismatches. We would have three special weapons in DHop, Ruggs and KM that would put fear in every DC. How many teams have a second CB that can run with Ruggs? He impacts how defenses will align. He can make an impact without catching the ball. No safeties in the box creating more space for RBs and Kyler to run as well.

SF probably after that 80 yard TD

I know they love Wolfley but there is no way they are trusting someone with that many concussions to be the secret messenger of their intent.

ha

look -- its probably nothing

but i find it so interesting that Mr. Smashmouth doesnt want to go OL or DL -- but a speed WR

its just so out of character

His speed scared everyone. Hell..... a few of the times he touched the ball it was electric.

The K1 throw and Andy's catch and run (1st rounder to 2nd rounder) may have been the play of the year IMO. Even more than KD's run in Seattle.

They will be once he part of the system and utilized properly.

Man, with this kind of defense of the guy, you'd have to think there's no reason to draft a WR at #8...
