I haven't seen as many tweets as I recall seeing last year about the players the Arizona Cardinals are visiting or bringing for workouts. Perhaps I don't follow the right people, but I have seen some over the last couple of days.
Let's see who has at least some interest from Arizona.
Aaron Wilson reported Wake Forest cornerback Kevin Johnson (no relation to former Phoenix Suns star Kevin Johnson...as far as I know) worked out for a number of teams, including the Arizona Cardinals. Johnson is one of the top corner prospects and is being mocked in the first round. He might not even be available when the Cardinals make their pick at No. 24.
He is 6-0, 188 pounds and ran a 4.5 40-yard dash. He would fit the "long and fast" profile Bruce Arians will want to get in the draft.
Local reporter Kent Somers reported the Cardinals are bringing in OLB Darius Allen for a visit this week. The team already gave him a look at his Pro Day, when coach Larry Foote worked him out.
Allen is 6-3, 239 pounds and runs a 4.7-second 40. A small school prospect, he had 29.5 sacks over the last two seasons. He won the 2014 Cliff Harris award, which is given to the top defensive player in the Division II, III and NAIA schools. He would likely be a Day 3 pick from what I could find.
Somers also reported the Cardinals also brought in Sacramento State receiver DeAndre Carter this week. He is 5-8, 190 pounds and runs a 4.4-second 40. He caught 64 passes for over 900 yards in 2013 and 14 touchdowns. He bested that in 2014, catching 99 passes for over 1300 yards and 17 scores. He also had a little experience returning kicks and punts.
