32. <p>The Cardinals were so close despite the amazing amount of injuries they had to deal with. Head coach Bruce Arians is a master and if he can just get through the season with a quarterback intact, who knows how far this team could go.</p> <p>Offensively, the Cardinals are set. They could spend a pick on a running back, but I think they like what they have and I’m not sure Todd Gurley is Arians’ guy here. Instead, I believe they go for the defensive side of the ball and shore up the interior.</p> <p>I like Armstead a ton, and his combination of size and explosiveness makes him tough to overcome. He can use his first step to get his hands on an offensive lineman before they can react and move them into a run lane or just out of the way. He’s a bit raw rushing the passer, but seems very coachable so I’m not worried about that.</p> <p>I think Arizona is one of the more fascinating teams this offseason and am excited to see what they do both in free agency and the NFL Draft.</p>. DL. Oregon. Arik Armstead. 24. player
