22. Arizona Cardinals- Defensive End Markus Golden, Missouri

The Arizona Cardinals are off to a great start in the 2014 NFL season and will make the playoffs because of it. They have a great defense with Patrick Peterson and Tyrann Mathieu and company, but they’ll need a new pass rusher in the 2015 NFL Draft aftr John Abraham is out for the year and likely to retire. Markus Golden from Mizzou is the answer for the Cardinals. He’s a quick, powerful pass rusher who knows how to bust through or around the line in order to throw down the quarterback or ball carrier.
