The 2017 season is in the books. It’s on to 2018

For the Arizona Cardinals, a late-season surge during which they won four of their last six games, saw them finish the campaign at 8-8. This means general manager Steve Keim is the owner of the 15th overall pick in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft, which gets underway April 26 in Arlington, Tex.

The Cardinals went into the offseason with many needs, and most of them were on the offensive side of the football. A few of them have been addressed in free agency with general manager Steve Keim inking quarterbacks Sam Bradford and Mike Glennon and veteran tackle Andre Smith joining the team.

Arizona still has a need at wide receiver, where Larry Fitzgerald will return. But beyond the future Hall-of-Famer, Arizona doesn’t have much in the way of proven production.

Leading up to the draft, we’ll keep you updated on what the foremost experts in the field project for the Cardinals under first-year head coach Steve Wilks.
