Cardinals Draft Jonathan Cooper

The Arizona Cardinals drafted North Carolina OG Jonathan Cooper with their first round draft pick yesterday.   Even with the top 3 OT's already picked, the Cardinals had to get OL help.  They had their choice of Jonathan Cooper and Chance Warmack.  I like them both, I think they will both be long time starters, but if choosing between the two, I think Cooper was the right call.  Cooper was a team captain and he started 40+ games at North Carolina, he clearly outperformed Warmack at the Scouting Combine and he doesn't have the injury red flags that Warmack has.  Arians likes to pound the rock between the tackles, having a road grader like Cooper paving the way will help immensely.  Nice start to the draft Cards!
