Schrager’s mock draft shows the Cardinals selecting Arvell Reese, a versatile edge defender from Ohio State, after the Raiders and Jets take quarterbacks and a pass rusher. Reese’s athleticism and off‑ball play fit Arizona’s 3‑4 scheme and could address a defensive weakness that allowed 28.7 points per game last season. While the team may still consider other options like Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love, Reese remains the top projected impact pick for the Cards.
