The 2026 NFL Draft is just one week away, and the Arizona Cardinals are finalizing their board. While safety might not be their most glaring need, it's a position that could see an addition, particularly from the third round onward. The Cardinals have a solid foundation with veteran leader Budda Baker and rookie Rabbit Taylor-Demerson, complemented by free-agent signing Andrew Wingard. However, adding depth and competition is always a smart move in today's NFL, making the safety class a group to watch for Cardinals fans.
