0:00On April 25th, the Arizona Cardinals just snagged Iowa linebacker Carson Sherar in the 6th round, 183rd overall pick. This 5th year senior boss last season, with 83 tackles, 12 for loss, showing off that raw speed to chase down Runner's quick. Shar flew under the radar until this year, but his downhill charge and hip flip make him a field-tilter. He fits coach Monti Austin for its mold perfectly, blending special teams grit with leader vibes and versatility across linebacker spots. Fans and scouts see him sliding in as a backup inside linebacker behind vets like Mac Wilson and newcomers Jack Gibbons.
