The Phinsider Community Mock Draft: Pick #16 - Arizona Cardinals

By Matt Infante

With the 15th pick in The Phinsider Community Mock Draft, the Detroit Lions select Jonathan Stewart, RB, Oregon.

Stewart received 29% of the vote, with Derrick Harvey getting 22% and Leodis McKelvin picking up 13%.

So here are the last 5 picks of this mock draft:

  1. Buffalo Bills - Malcolm Kelly, WR, Oklahoma (25%)
  2. Denver Broncos - Jeff Otah, OT, Pitt (30%)
  3. Carolina Panthers - Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Illinois (32%)
  4. Chicago Bears - Chris Williams, OT, Vanderbilt
  5. Detroit Lions - Jonathan Stewart, RB, Oregon

Next up, with the 16th overall pick, are the Arizona Cardinals.  Their draft needs are below, courtesy of NFL Draft Countdown:

1. Cornerback: Eric Green and Rod Hood aren't shutdown types by any stretch and Antrel Rolle has officially made the move to safety. That means they're now severely lacking in both quality and depth.
2. Defensive End: Darnell Dockett is a perfect fit at defensive end in their 3-4 scheme but the Cards could still use an upgrade opposite him where Antonio Smith is, at best, merely an average NFL starter.
3. Running Back: Edgerrin James is nearing that dreaded 30 year old mark and has a lot of miles on his tires but even assuming that he can stay both healthy and productive a better backup is needed.
