Arizona Cardinals' Struggles Highlighted in NFL Draft Projections

The Arizona Cardinals are struggling to maintain respect in the NFL, particularly as they face tough competition within their division. Their recent games against division rivals have resulted in a combined score of 130 to 61, averaging 43.3 to 20.3.

As a result, the Cardinals have not made any significant progress in the 2026 NFL Draft projections, where they are projected to select Francis Mauigoa, an offensive tackle from Miami. According to a report from PFF, this draft scenario poses a nightmare for the Cardinals as they are set to miss out on top quarterback prospects while division rivals like the Los Angeles Rams secure a potential heir to Matthew Stafford.

The Cardinals are currently 23 points worse than all teams in their division, highlighting their need for improvement and the importance of the upcoming draft in rebuilding their team.
