NFL mock draft: Arizona Cardinals fill biggest needs in 4-round mock
In a four-round from Chad Reuter, the Cardinals select four predictable positions.
The 2026 NFL draft is still more than a month away, and we are beginning to get more multi-round mock drafts. We have a four-round mock draft from NFL. com's Chad Reuter.
What does that mean for the Arizona Cardinals , who have one pick in each round? In this case, it means hitting their four biggest needs with their first four picks. Let's see.
Round 1, pick No. 3: Miami OT Francis Mauigoa The Cardinals don't overthink this pick. Mauigoa's a strong, hard-nosed run blocker who fills a major need in Arizona and should be an NFL starter for a decade.
This pick appears to be destined for one of two routes — a tackle or a pass rusher. The question is whether they value Mauigoa over David Bailey, who goes with the very next pick of this mock draft, or another pass rusher. The Cardinals have not done anything on the defensive edge this offseason.
