Cardinals’ 2022 NFL Draft Picks: Who Arizona Took Each Round
The Cardinals are entering a pivotal season in 2022, with the Kyler Murray contract drama looming overhead. Arizona was one of the best teams in the league in the first half of 2021, but they lost five of its last six, including the wild card game in disappointing fashion.
The past two years, the Cardinals selected hybrid linebackers in the first round, with Isaiah Simmons in 2020 and Zaven Collins in 2021. This year, they have four picks in the final two rounds to make up for trading away a few mid-round picks.
Here is how the Cardinals draft looks so far (to be updated during NFL Draft):
- Round 2, Pick 55: Trey McBride, TE, Colorado State
- Round 3, Pick 87: Cameron Thomas, DE, San Diego State
- Round 3, Pick 100 (Compensatory): Myjai Sanders, DE, Cincinnati
- Round 6, Pick 201: Keaontay Ingram, RB, USC
- Round 6, Pick 215 (Compensatory): Lecitus Smith, OG, Virginia Tech
- Round 7, Pick 244: Christian Matthew, CB, Valdosta State
- Round 7, Pick 256 (Compensatory): Jesse Luketa, LB, Penn State
- Round 7, Pick 257 (Compensatory): Marquis Hayes, OG, Oklahoma
The 2022 NFL draft begins with the first round on Thursday, April 28 at 8 p.m. ET. The second and third rounds take place on Friday, beginning at 7 p.m. Rounds four through seven take place on Saturday, beginning at noon.
