Despite missing on the Peyton Manning chase, the Arizona Cardinals will still select an offensive tackle in the 2012 NFL Draft according to Bucs Nation readers. Stanford's Jonathan Martin comes off the board, and he'll get to protect Kevin Kolb's blind side next season. That doesn't sound like a winning combination to me, but what do I know?
Moving on the Dallas Cowboys, we find a team that doesn't really have any obvious needs. They addressed the cornerback position by signing Brandon Carr, and that was their only big need this offseason. The team could use some depth or an upgrade at a few positions, most notably defensive tackle, interior line and third receiver, but there's no pressing need on the roster. It seems the Cowboys are in perfect position to select the best available player with the 14th overall pick.
