Happy Wednesday before the 2022 NFL Draft.
The Arizona Cardinals are set to pick at 23, then 55 and 87 before they take some time off and come back in round six.
That means we will have some good action on Thursday and Friday before sleeping in on Saturday.
In the first round of the SB Nation Manager Mock Draft we took Zion Johnson.
Picks were flying so we were able to come back and do a second round and here is how it unfolded.

- Pittsburgh Steelers/Behind the Steel Curtain: Alec Pierce, WR, Cincinnati
- Green Bay Packers (via Raiders)/Acme Packing Company: Quay Walker, LB, Georgia
- New England Patriots/Pats Pulpit: Chad Muma, LB, Wyoming
So, that brings us to the Cardinals pick at 55 (Round 2 Pick 23).
Arizona Cardinals - Roger McCreary, CB - Auburn
McCreary has one red flag, he has baby arms. Yet, he is one of the more physical and aggressive corners in the 2022 NFL Draft. The Cardinals could look another way, but with the run on wide receivers, and the need at cornerback, I think this makes sense.
Some guys I pondered: Nik Bonitto, Drake Jackson, DeMarvin Leal, Breece Hall and Cam Thomas.
However, McCreary is uber-competitive, hyper-aggressive, with good ball skills and a dog mentality. He is going to compete relentlessly and should give the Cardinals a chance to have a starter immediately.
Who would you have taken?
