It has been obvious — especially since the Bears traded out of the No. 1 draft spot — that the Cardinals would be in a good position to make a deal to trade down from the No. 3 pick overall if that is what they chose to do. Then came the report Monday from Adam Schefter that "at least" six teams had "inquired" about trading for that pick.

Anthony Richardson's spot in the draft pecking order, buoyed by his athletic prowess, would ultimately be the driving factor in who would want to move. Along with Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud, it sure seems like there are three QBs in play at the top of the list.
