Cardinals Schedule Top-30 QB Visits as Draft Options Narrow

The team is evaluating draft options with no clear long-term starter.

Overview

  • Arizona has lined up top-30 visits with Carson Beck and Ty Simpson, which are in-facility meetings teams can use with up to 30 prospects, according to NFL Media.
  • Head coach Mike LaFleur said he likes the current quarterback room led by Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew as the front office continues its evaluations.
  • ESPN’s latest mock draft, cited by Heavy, projects Miami’s Carson Beck to Arizona at No. 65 after Alabama’s Ty Simpson goes No. 33 to the Jets.
  • With Fernando Mendoza widely expected to be the No. 1 pick, the Cardinals’ spot at No. 3 leaves them outside the consensus top quarterback tier.
  • Coverage splits on approach, with a local reporter linking Beck and calling Simpson a lottery ticket, while separate opinion pieces float but doubt a pricey C.J. Stroud trade.
