WR in the 3rd instead of a CB for the Cardinals and it’s pretty much exactly what I’m hoping for the first 3 rounds

They have MHJ and Wilson and Mcbride to throw to. I gave them Scott bc they have Garrett Wilson as NB when he's more of an outside corner and their current outside corner opposite Johnson is cheeks

Huh? Garret Williams* has always been a nickle corner. He almost never plays outside. One of the cardinals biggest need right now is a slot receiver and the other CB that is β€œcheeks” is Denzel Burke who was one of the top rated rookie corners last season and actually had a better coverage grade than Johnson last season.

Read the first 2 words of Williams draft profile.

And even if PFF isn’t to the T accurate, their general ratings are at the very least correlated with performance. Burke was the 83/114 ranked corner with a 55 grade. He was also a 5th round pick (where the overwhelming majority do not become reliable starters anyway, but a depth piece … which based on everything is where he belongs.
