Will Monii Ossenfort cook up another top of the draft deal?
Today, Monti Ossenfort and Jonathan Gannon met the media to discuss the personnel moves they have made the past couple of weeks and to outline their approach to the 2024 NFL Draft.
Phone lines are OPEN: call 1-800-AZM-ONTI
“We’ll always have the conversation…if it makes sense.”

Good Information Check Boxes on Prospects:

“I’m a big fan of the more, good information we can have in the draft process, the better. It’s not going to be the first time that a player doesn’t check off every box for the spring process. Won’t be the last time. … we respect that.”
Brutal to say goodbye to D.J.

But could it be just a farewell?

Tapping into Players’ Connection with Draft Prospects:

Why Cards Like QB Desmond Ridder
On new #AZCardinals QB2 Desmond Ridder:
JG: “Skill set. Big guy. Arm Talent. Mobility. Smart. Plays fast. That’s what jumped off the tape.”
Monti: “Desmond has played a lot of ball over his two years…no substitute for experience, esp at QB position.” pic.twitter.com/HftnlV5Vvi

Your thoughts?
Unless Monti is throwing out smoke screens, it would appear that the Cardinals are fervently interested in trading the #4 pick, given the right package.
Hasn’t that pretty much been the plan all along?
