Happy Friday night one and all.

The Arizona Cardinals have been mocked a number of names in the 2021 NFL Draft but someone at Pro Football Focus came up with a new name, so I thought it was worth a Friday night read.

From PFF:

16. ARIZONA CARDINALS — WR ELIJAH MOORE, OLE MISS

The addition of the current version of A.J. Green shouldn’t keep Arizona from looking to add receiving talent early in the 2021 NFL Draft. Moore recorded times in the 93rd percentile or better in each of the 40-yard dash, short shuttle and three-cone drills at his recent pro day. His combination of speed, quicks and toughness makes him an ideal fit in the slot in Arizona with DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk and Green projected to line up outside.

Elijah Moore would be an interesting fit for the Cardinals, as he would not be an outside receiver, which is the conversation about Green.

However, Moore would be a dynamite slot receiver in the Cardinals open offensive system.

What do you think?
