NFL analyst picks favorite Arizona Cardinals draft pick

The Arizona Cardinals have seven 2026 draft picks and people will have their favorites. Most will probably select the Cardinals' top draft pick, running back Jeremiyah Love. He seems to have the highest likelihood to be great.

However, some don't like the selection as much, but it isn't about the player. It is about the value at No. 3 overall.

Nonetheless, grading and ranking every NFL team's draft class, NFL.com's Gennaro Filice picked his favorite draft pick for each team.

For the Cardinals, his favorite pick wasn't Love, it was their second-round draft pick, guard Chase Bisontis.

After ordering up a spicy dish in Round 1, Arizona complemented that move with a nice glass of milk in Round 2. Bisontis is a high-floor prospect, having started his entire three-year career at Texas A&M. He should slot right into a starting-guard role opposite free-agent acquisition Isaac Seumalo, with both clearing paths for the team’s new backfield star.

Bisontis isn't a tackle, but he could be an improvement at right guard over Isaiah Adams. Bisontis doesn't answer the questions the Cardinals have at right tackle, but at that point in the draft, there weren't tackles worth taking.

It's not an exciting pick to be the favorite, but if he becomes a steady, solid presence on the interior of the offensive line, it will help Love be great.
