NFL Draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. has weighed in on the possibility of the Arizona Cardinals selecting Marvin Harrison Jr. with the No. 4 overall pick in the upcoming draft. Harrison, a highly touted wide receiver prospect, could be a game-changer for the Cardinals if he remains available at their pick.

Kiper highlighted that while he currently has Harrison projected to land with the Cardinals in his second 2024 mock draft, the impressive skill set of the receiver might attract trade proposals from other teams interested in securing him. Should three quarterbacks be selected in the first three picks, the Cardinals may face a decision on whether to choose Harrison or entertain potential trade offers.

The analyst questioned whether Arizona General Manager Monti Ossenfort would be swayed by lucrative trade proposals, such as a 2025 first-round pick, to move down in the draft order. Kiper emphasized the rarity of teams trading up for a non-quarterback prospect in the top five, making Harrison a unique player that could garner significant interest from other franchises.

Ultimately, the looming question for the Cardinals remains whether adding a player like Harrison would propel them into contention. The decision could hinge on both the value of potential trade offers and the team's assessment of their current roster needs as they approach the draft day.
