Are Arizona Cardinals Showing Their Hand?

It’s not much of a secret just what the Arizona Cardinals need from this year’s NFL draft. Spoiler alert: it’s not much different from the position group they targeted early in free agency.
But some of the experts, and quite a few mock drafts, have talked around the possibility of the Cardinals targeting a DB, or even OL with the 16th overall pick.
Previously, it seemed unrealistic, but merely due to the fact that the Cardinals’ DL need was so great, taking any other position seemed irresponsible.
But then they added a pair of top-end players in Josh Sweat and Dalvin Tomlinson to the defensive line. Suddenly, other positions seemed less out of the question.
But the string of recent free agent signings might be indicating something else, for the time being.
Every team makes depth signings, and the Cardinals are not exceptions to that rule. After the initial wave of higher-profile signings took place, Arizona signed a trio of depth players in OL Jake Curhan, CB Jaylon Jones and OL Royce Newman.
Granted, none of these players figure to be starters, or even regular platoon players just yet, but it does seem odd that the Cardinals would continue to add depth to both of those position groups if they intended on making a swing for a player at those positions early in the draft.
Maybe GM Monti Ossenfort is simply gathering bodies, and some of these signings will be cut. Maybe OL Jonah Williams departs via trade or release. But Arizona also re-signed Evan Brown and Kelvin Beachum to provide consistency up front.
In the CB room, it’s apparent that HC Jonathan Gannon wants his secondary to be built from the ground up, with players like Garrett Williams, Max Melton, Starling Thomas V and others taking the bulk of the reps.
The Cardinals also looked to add a veteran CB in free agency, and even hosted CB Asante Samuel Jr. for a workout. No deal materialized at the time, but they then signed CB Jaylon Jones as a depth piece.
Granted, the power of BPA is real. If the Cardinals are high on a player like Will Johnson, or any of the various OL options, they’ll draft them. But with the way they’ve approached some of the other needs on the roster (with the exception of WR), it seems like Ossenfort is content to ride with the starters he has, with depth added behind them.
You could argue the DL is a similar situation, but with the exception of the two marquee additions, all the other signings in that unit have been in-house re-signs.
This could all end up becoming white noise if the Cardinals end up cutting some of their depth options or younger players, but that doesn’t necessarily feel likely right now.
It does seem like a pretty good bet that the Cardinals will go with a developmental pass rush option at No. 16 overall, or even work a trade and address one of the deeper positions with a later pick.

Arizona State tabs Grand Canyon's Molly Miller as next women's basketball coach

TEMPE, AZ — Arizona State is hiring Grand Canyon’s Molly Miller as its next women’s basketball coach.
Miller replaces Natasha Adair, who was fired earlier this month after going 29-62 in three seasons.
Miller had a successful run across town at GCU, leading the Lopes to their first Western Athletic Conference title and NCAA Tournament appearance this season. Grand Canyon took a 30-game winning streak into the NCAA Tournament before losing to Baylor in the first round.
The 38-year-old Miller went 117-38 in five seasons at GCU after a program-best 32-3 this year.
“We would like to thank coach Molly Miller for leading our program for five seasons, culminating in the first conference title and NCAA Tournament appearance for women’s basketball,” GCU athletic director Jamie Boggs said in a statement on Saturday. “We wish her the best in her new opportunity.”
Miller previously coached at her alma mater, leading Division II Drury to a 180-17 record in six seasons.
