Ep. 996 - A week out and the uncertainty remains. The Cardinals could go in a number of different directions with the third overall pick. And which ever direction they choose, they have to get it right. Though it happens, teams selecting that high in the draft “can’t miss” on a prospect, according to Paige Dimakos, the president and CEO of The Draft Network. On Wednesday, she joined Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman to give her thoughts on the 2026 draft class overall, who she likes for the Cardinals at 3, weighs in on the debate between premium and non-premium positions, plus talks Ty Simpson. Yes, the Alabama quarterback was a topic on the day he was reportedly in town on a Top-30 visit.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Paul Calvisi has some breaking speculation about the draft, and why not? Trade back in the draft? Stick at 3? These are the heavy questions Paul poses to Darren Urban and Dani Sureck on this week’s podcast. Also under conversation: the Aaron Curry effect in the top 5, Sonny Styles as an early pick, the idea of Arvell Reese as inside or outside, Bain early, the future of Calais Campbell, defense in the first, Getting Cultured with Dani, ultra-runners and how they are mock drafty, a QB in the later rounds, and Paul and Darren reminisce about Coach Mac.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 995 - Currently, the Arizona Cardinals are scheduled to make the third overall selection in next week’s draft. Do they stick and pick? And if so, then who are the most likely targeted prospects? Do they trade down? And if so, then how far down might be too far? All great questions. And all questions Craig Grialou and Dani Sureck attempted to answer with the help of Trevor Sikkema, co-host of the NFL Stock Exchange. Sikkema rejoins the show, adding his thoughts on whether an offensive lineman or edge rusher should be the choice of GM Monti Ossenfort; what offers a higher return on investment, is there a pass-rusher who stands out among the others, and how might the non-premium position players affect the top of the draft.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Plus, Craig and Zach explain the reason LaFleur is so focused on the mechanics of the huddle, the chip that likely rests on Nick Rallis’ shoulder, the idea behind better communication improving the overall defense, and with two weeks to go before the draft, is offensive line becoming less of an option at pick 3? Zach updates the Cardinals Mock Draft Tracker.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don’t miss your class picture and don’t take a punter in the first round - unless he’s a Hall of Famer. These are the questions Paul Calvisi are considering, as he brings in Darren Urban and Dani Sureck - voluntarily - on the first day of Cardinals offseason workouts. Our trio discuss the players being back in the building, Zaven Collins and Hjalte Froholdt’s analysis of first-day Mike LaFleur, upcoming tax day, the considerations of what to do at 3, what the Cardinals might think about if they traded down, Sonny Styles, Ruben Bain Jr., a new Getting Cultured, Fernando Mendoza’s skipping of the draft festivities, and a (heated) debate between Paul and Darren about the value of post-Round 2 QBs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 993 - In a little over two weeks - two weeks from Thursday to be specific - the Arizona Cardinals will be on the clock. So, at pick No. 3, what position should GM Monti Ossenfort target? Does he go offensive line? Is an edge rusher the selection? Or might there be a wildcard? Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi discuss the options Ossenfort may have with that first-round pick, including trading down which he did in his first draft back in 2023. Before that conversation though, Craig and Paul look ahead to the start of the offseason program. Day 1 for the Cardinals is Tuesday. It’s the first chance new head coach Mike LaFleur and his staff will be around the players in a more formal, official capacity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The group discusses the potential benefits of those sessions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Ep. 991 - It’s the one topic that’s dominated much of the offseason. Quarterback. Who’s in the room? Who might be in the room? And, yes, who no longer is in the room? Those questions were asked. Those questions were answered by head coach Mike LaFleur over a 30-minute period on Monday morning at the Arizona Biltmore, the site of this year’s Annual League Meeting.

Ep. 990 – At first glance, he reminds you of Dennis Gardeck, maybe even Pat Tillman (or Kurt Cobain, according to Paul Calvisi.) Watch him play, and yeah, the Gardeck similarities continue. Hear him speak, and you feel like you’re talking to Budda Baker in terms of how he describes his style of play. In other words, new safety Andrew Wingard, before even playing a down of football in a Cardinals uniform, is trending towards being a fan favorite. Recently, Wingard sat down with Calvisi and Craig Grialou to discuss why he chose Arizona after seven seasons in Jacksonville, why going undrafted might’ve been the best thing to happen to him, and why he plays like he plays.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

show sucks
Wasn't there however there are a few forums suggesting Murray was ok, again wasn't there so maybe they are down playing it.
Think there is a lot of fans who are cautiously reserved about 2019 season (after the chosen Rozen fiasco) but hopefully Wolfe is right about the schemes and offensive upgrades.
Good luck Josh Rosen this Sunday beat the Seahawks... it's time to protect our house.....time is now.....
Go Arizona cardinals
