The Arizona Cardinals were one of the most talked-about teams leading to the NFL Draft.
Some thought they would be better off trading down from their No. 4 pick.
Others stated that they should’ve traded Kyler Murray and used that pick to get a new quarterback.
However, most people agreed that they should’ve used that pick to get a generational talent like Marvin Harrison Jr.
The talented wide receiver was met with mixed reviews, as the talent was clearly there, but some were worried about the way he handled himself by skipping all workouts and his feud with Fanatics.
Then again, from a football perspective, there’s nothing not to like.
That’s why it wasn’t much of a surprise to see Cardinals TE Trey McBride raving about his new teammate.
Cardinals TE @mcbtrey on rookie first-round pick Marvin Harrison Jr. “This guy is elite. He’s a freak of nature. A guy of his stature shouldn’t be able to move the way he moves. … Everything he does is elite.”

Granted, Harrison isn’t the biggest or more physical player, but what he lacks in size he makes up with insane talent, elite route-running skills, and secure hands.
The son of an NFL legend, Harrison Jr. was literally born and raised among some of the best players in the game, and he lives and breathes football.
The Cardinals needed someone to fill in for the legendary Larry Fitzgerald, and even though it’s still early to say, they may have found the right guy to replace him already.
