With the Chicago Bears already having traded their #1 overall pick to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a handful of draft picks and WR D.J. Moore, it is abundantly clear that there is a heavy demand for a top-10 pick.
Many teams focal point of struggle last season was at the quarterback position, and the league is currently going through a rebalancing period at that position. But thankfully, there are plenty of talented quarterbacks entering this upcoming draft.
The Titans, Lions, Commanders, Packers, or Flacons are among the teams that may be interested in trading up.
For the Cardinals, they do have Kyler Murray already, meaning they have some flexibility in trading away their top pick for hefty compensation.
Former Washington QB Robert Griffen III advocated for Arizona to make the move.
Teams moving up for a QB will trade a substantial amount for that pick. Just make sure you can still get the guy you want if you move back.

Ahead of the Cardinals on the draft board lie the Panthers and the Texans, who will both more than likely select a quarterback. That being said, if Arizona does elect to keep their pick, they can select basically anyone they desire.
The NFL Draft is set to start on April 27th in Kansas City, Missouri.
