The Arizona Cardinals pick up a speedy, crafty corner to bolster a struggling group.
ARIZONA -- After trading down to No. 43 from pick No. 35, the Arizona Cardinals selected Rutgers CB Max Melton with their first second-rounder of 2024.
Melton played all four years at Rutgers. He recorded multiple interceptions in each of his last three years, and led the team in that category in 2021 and 2023. Most importantly, the crafty corner displayed consistent, notable improvement from year to year - a trait that seems to be near and dear to head coach Jonathan Gannon and Ossenfort.
Versatility has been a mantra for Gannon and Ossenfort in this off-season. The Cardinals want players who can slot in anywhere on the field, although not in the same sense that former GM Steve Keim's failed gadget player experiments might have.
