Ty Simpson is now being linked to the Cardinals as a potential late first-round target. Arizona holds the No. 34 overall pick and possesses the necessary draft capital to trade up into the first round to secure Simpson, who is currently in the running to be the second quarterback selected in the 2026 NFL Draft.
