Rosen on No. 10 pick: 'There were 9 mistakes ahead of me'

He may not have been selected in the top five on Thursday, but nobody can ever accuse Josh Rosen of being shy on confidence.

After the Arizona Cardinals traded up to the No. 10 spot to select the former UCLA quarterback, Rosen offered a very bold statement for the teams who passed him by.

Rosen was projected as a top selection throughout his collegiate career, but slipped on draft night to the 10th slot, behind quarterbacks Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, and Josh Allen.

"I am more motivated than I have ever been in my entire life," the 21-year-old told ESPN after the selection.

While Rosen may not be happy with his draft slot, he will be pleased with his new team, as the Cardinals will likely bring him along slowly behind Sam Bradford. That veteran leadership could be crucial to his development as the quarterback of the future for the NFC West club.
