In an unexpected turn, the Arizona Cardinals are refocusing their NFL draft strategy towards wide receivers and cornerbacks rather than the anticipated defensive front. ESPN's Matt Miller reports that the Cardinals' off-season free agency moves have addressed their defensive needs, paving the way for a potential selection of Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden in the upcoming draft.

This shift in strategy highlights the necessity for improved offensive production, especially given the underwhelming performances from current receivers like Michae Wilson and Zay Jones. The Cardinals aim to enhance their offensive firepower, considering that their current receiver corps has struggled to make an impact. As the draft approaches, the Cardinals’ first pick will reveal the direction they choose to solidify their roster ahead of the new season.
