Sources tell PHNX Cardinals that Ossenfort has already engaged in early trade discussions with GM Brett Veach and the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs, who own the ninth overall pick, would likely target the top available pass rusher in either Texas Tech’s David Bailey or Ohio State’s Arvell Reese. While initial trade details remain vague, the NFL Trade Value Chart projects that pick #3 is worth roughly 2200, while pick #9 is worth #1350.

“I think the fans will be in for a treat next Thursday,” Veach told the media on the team’s YouTube page last week. “I think it should be an entertaining night…there will probably be a lot of trades. ” To complete any trade would almost certainly need to include pick #29, which was acquired earlier this offseason in a deal that sent All-Pro CB Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams.

This draft remains a buyer’s market, so while Ossenfort would likely demand more compensation, it’s questionable to assume he’ll get it. Especially when you consider the fact that the Cardinals have largely made it known that they’d prefer to trade down. “I think some of that will become more clear next week,” Ossenfort told the media when asked about trade interest from other teams.
