Leonard Floyd. 29. player. 32. <p>A quick look at the roster for the Arizona Cardinals can generate some real excitement. There is legitimate talent everywhere on this particular squad, but if we are nitpicking, the Cardinals could really use an influx of young talent on the edge, and Leonard Floyd would be a value here.</p> <p>Floyd looked to be every bit of a top-10 pick at times during his stint in Athens, and he could easily be off the board at this point. If he’s available, however, the former Georgia star would be a strong situational pass-rusher immediately with the upside to become an every-down monster in the right situation. He is probably too small to really hold up against the run right now, but Arizona has enough quality depth and scheme versatility to hide that weakness, and if you squint hard enough, you can see multiple seasons with double-digit sacks in his future.</p> <p>The Cardinals could also go with an interior defensive lineman and it wouldn’t be a surprise, but no one available in this mock brings the upside of Leonard Floyd. Fortunately for Arizona, they are in a roster position where they can swing for the fences, and that is a great place to be.</p>. OLB. Georgia
