Our recent drafting history has been solid, but picking 29th, with no second round pick, it is POSSIBLE that the team will draft someone not expected to go in round one. My guess is one of the QB's Jones or Prescott, and I'm going with Prescott. If the improbable does happen, who do you think could be the surprise pick? And I know that SK would first try to move back.

This is an excellent question because I didn't see our last two first round picks coming. this board has done a very good job of looking outside the box, unfortunately that doesn't leave many surprise picks left. I'm going to go with Artie Burns and Kendall Fuller. These aren't players I would necessarily take at #29. Neither of these players get much love in the first round from the mocks that I have read, but do fit the physical criteria and play a position of need.

Ohcrap, and remember since we don't have a second round pick and we like either CB, they probably won't be there at the end of the third round.

Keanu Neal S , U of FL , although this pick choice seems to be getting more play.

Cody Whitehair. He can backup all line positions and has good upside as a center. The Cardinals value versatility and if he doesn't initially beat out Shipley, he at least can be a swing guard-center backup and play in sub packages.

Nick Martin.. if Kelly is gone and they really want to grab a center at #29 and think Kelly/Martin are the only two sure-fire prospects

Why? Because I just Googled "sleeper draft picks 2016" and he looks the most intriguing.

Paxton Lynch He most likely will be gone earlier in the 1st round but if he slips to the Cardinals I think they take him.

Myles Jack would be amazing if he fell to 29

I know about the injury but maybe it's not as bad as people think

Cards definitely still need help at lb

Will Fuller, WR from ND.

The Cards are, supposedly, shopping Floyd. Fuller could be his replacement.

My way out there selection is Braxton Miller. I think he's going to turn into an excellent WR and would give Arians a new toy.
