PHOENIX - The Arizona Cardinals have the luxury of hunting for the best available player with the No. 8 pick.

The Cardinals had a widely praised free agency period after trading for elite WR DeAndre Hopkins and signing three potential defensive starters. Arizona still has needs, of course.

The Cardinals could use a right tackle prospect and more defensive help after giving up the most total yards in the NFL last season. Arizona took quarterback Kyler Murray with the No. 1 overall pick last season and he won Offensive Rookie of the Year honors.
