Revisiting Cardinals 2026 NFL Draft: Was drafting Jeremiyah Love the right choice for Arizona?

The Arizona Cardinals face scrutiny over their decision to select running back Jeremiyah Love with the third overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Despite head coach Mike LaFleur's focus on building a strong offensive line, the team opted for a skill position player while holding a 2-5 record.

Love has struggled to make a significant impact, recording 245 rushing yards on 67 carries and 36 receiving yards across five appearances. He currently ranks last among qualified running backs in tackle avoidance at 6.0% and has recently been sidelined by a high ankle sprain.

Tyler Allgeier has also contributed to the backfield rotation as the team evaluates the long-term value of their high-draft investment.
