This season hasn’t gone according to plan for the Arizona Cardinals, the Vegas still has confidence that Bruce Arians’ squad can turn it around and make a playoff run. If they wind up picking this late in the draft, they can look around for the best available player at a position of need.

Florida’s Jarrad Davis may be dealing with an ankle injury, but before he went down against Missouri, the linebacker prospect looked like the real deal. Even though he’s still developing, Davis has presented an all-around skill set to go along with a nice 6’2”, 238-pound frame.

With the instincts that Davis provides, he could develop quite nicely on a defense that features elite talents like Patrick Peterson and Tyrann Mathieu.
