The Huddle Report just updated their invaluable and usually accurate Top 200. Quick Cards' mini-mock:

1(13) - Michael Floyd, WR, Notre Dame
3(80) - Billy Winn, DL, Boise State
4(112) - Mitchell Schwartz, OT, California
5(151) - Justin Bethel, CB, Presbyterian
6A(177) - Emmanuel Acho, ILB, Texas
6B(185) - Lamar Holmes, OT, Southern Mississippi
7(221) - Kelcie McCray, SS, Arkansas State

Invaluable? You a sales rep K9?

Something just dawned on me and that is if the Cards go DE/DL in the first round does that mean the days of CC being a Cardinal are done after the 2012 season? This team has pulled some stupid moves over the years and this would not surprise me. Draft a replacement for CC.

The information that has come to me about this years draft is that the D-line is deep and talented. The other thing is that they all need developing as they are raw in technique with several needing to learn how to play with their hands better. It's common knowledge that most DL need at least 2 years before they are ready to fully join the rotation.

DD will be close to the end of contract and both he and the coaches know he needs to tag out more during games to keep him fresh.

Carter looks very promising but probably is more of a NT than DE. That leaves us with a bunch of aged vets on the DL at the back up positions.

So no I don't think it means the Cards are looking to lose CC.

Every time he posts that I like to remind him that in 2005 the Cardinals drafted 5 of the Huddlereports top 75 players. Now considered the worst draft of the Denny Green era :D
