2009 NFL Draft Quick Hits

The 2009 NFL Draft is in the books and here are the Pickle’s thoughts on what each team did in this year’s Draft.

Arizona Cardinals: The addition of Chris “Beanie” Wells allowed the Cards to cut ties with Edgerrin James who was becoming a malcontent and wanted to be released.  Not sure about Cody Brown though who seems more suited to be an edge rusher in a 3-4 defense.  Picking up LSU offensive lineman Herman Johnson at the end of the fifth was a good value pick as some draft sites had him as a solid third round prospect.  An overall solid draft even if they failed to address their need at linebacker.
