In many cases, the Arizona Cardinals will draft Will Anderson Jr. with the third overall pick if they didn’t trade down. And most mock drafts you cross involve the top two teams in the draft taking a quarterback - the Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans - but what if Houston went with edge instead of quarterback? Farfetched? Not really. In 2006, running back Reggie Bush and quarterback Vince Young were considered likely choices for Houston at number one overall, but they instead rolled with defensive end Mario Williams. Could the same thing happen in 2023 with the second overall pick? And if so, where does that leave the Cards?
