Arizona Cardinals 2021 NFL Mock Draft Roundup, 6.0

Throughout the year and leading up to the 2021 NFL draft, we will update our Arizona Cardinals Mock Draft Roundup showing picks for the Arizona Cardinals from several prominent sites and draft analysts.

The following are picks in recent mock drafts for the Cardinals:

EDSFootball - Hanson (3/5)

16. Jaycee Horn, CB, South Carolina

With Patrick Peterson, Dre Kirkpatrick and Johnathan Joseph set to become free agents, the Cardinals will need to add corners via the draft and/or free agency that can contribute right away. Horn, son of former Pro Bowl receiver Joe Horn, excels in press-man coverage due to his size, physical playing style and a competitive demeanor.

ESPN - McShay (3/4)

16. Jaycee Horn, CB, South Carolina

J.J. Watt and Chandler Jones spell problems for opposing QBs, but who will be in coverage? Both starting corners are primed to hit free agency this month, and the Cardinals' pass defense was middle-of-the-pack last year. Horn will get his hands on passes, bringing length and instinctive play to the outside. In just seven games in 2020, he broke up six passes and picked off two.

Josh Weinfuss on his fit with the Cardinals: Horn would come in and compete for a starting job in a secondary that's thin on cornerbacks. Arizona is set to lose two of its top corners in free agency in Patrick Peterson and Dre Kirkpatrick, and Robert Alford hasn't played a down in two seasons. Horn would see action right away.

CBS Sports - Trapasso (3/3)

16. Caleb Farley, CB, Virginia Tech

Farley is a long, former wideout who tracks the football awesomely and has the athletic prowess to stick with receivers down the field.

2020 NFL Power Rankings: Arizona Cardinals

Throughout the 2020 NFL season, we will compile a consensus NFL Power Rankings that averages the rankings of all 32 NFL teams.

Here is where the Arizona Cardinals rank in terms of average, best and worst in our consensus Week 17 NFL Power Rankings:

Average ranking: 14.2 (14th)
Best ranking: 14th (Multiple)
Worst ranking: 15th (USA Today)

Below you will find a Week 17 roundup for the Cardinals in our consensus 2020 NFL Power Rankings.

The Athletic -- Rank: 14

Haason Reddick, edge: They have bigger free-agent names like Patrick Peterson, Kenyan Drake and Larry Fitzgerald, but given how well Reddick has played in the second half of the season, he gets the nod. Reddick is tied for third league-wide with 12.5 sacks. Reddick has been shuffled in and out of different roles during his time in Arizona, but for a team looking for a young pass rusher with upside, he could be really attractive.

CBS Sports -- Rank: 14

That was a major choke job against the 49ers. It's not a good look going into the playoffs. Kyler Murray is dinged up, but should play against the Rams.
