Cardinals add secondary depth with Christian Campbell

The Arizona Cardinals have selected cornerback Christian Campbell out of Penn State with the 182nd overall pick in the sixth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

After taking offensive players with their first four picks in the draft, the Cardinals opted to add a piece to the secondary with Campbell's selection. While he likely won't be a key contributor right away, Campbell could be used in passing situations when extra cornerbacks are required.

What the analysts are saying

• "Long corner lacking the fluidity and twitch to stay connected with intermediate and deep routes. Campbell looks more comfortable playing off the line where his long arms have a shot to cover for his inconsistent footwork. He's not a fluid enough athlete and hasn't made enough plays on the ball to warrant much excitement, but if he runs well, his size and speed could get him drafted." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
• "Campbell has the length, and I project Campbell to be a second or third-round pick." - ESPN's Mel Kiper via PennLive.com
