Arizona Cardinals DRAFT PICKS | FOX Sports

2026 NFL DRAFT

RD	PICK	TEAM		PLAYER	TRADE FROM
1	3		Cardinals	Jeremiyah Love With all due respect to Heisman Trophy winner and likely No. 1 pick Fernando Mendoza, Love is the best offensive prospect in this class — and frankly, I don’t think it's particularly close. Love isn’t just the best back in this class; he’s among a select handful of the elite runners to enter the NFL since I began scouting a quarter-century ago, offering a blend of size, quick feet and breakaway speed reminiscent of recent blue-chip backs Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson. Notre Dame, RB · POS RK 1	-
2	34		Cardinals	Chase Bisontis An athletic 6-foot-5, 315-pounder, Bisontis looks and moves like a tackle — he even earned freshman All-American honors at right tackle back in 2023. He played even better inside at left guard the past two years, showing the initial quickness and agility to fit best in a zone-blocking scheme. Texas A&M, G · POS RK 2	-
3	65		Cardinals	Carson Beck In some circles, Beck might be better known for his mistakes than his successes, but he’s battle-tested, a gifted natural passer and offers prototypical size. He is one of the few QBs in this class with a realistic shot of eventually being an NFL starter. Miami (FL), QB · POS RK 4	-
4	104		Cardinals	Kaleb Proctor Proctor may not look the part of a full-time DT in the NFL, but few in this class can match his initial quickness and lateral agility — traits that should help him generate plenty of disruption. Southeastern Louisiana, DT · POS RK 9	-

6	183		Cardinals	Karson ShararIowa, LB · POS RK 24	-
