The Arizona Cardinals were awarded three compensatory selections in the NFL draft next month for their losses in free agency last year. These additions were expected.
With the addition of the compensatory selections, the Cardinals now have eight total picks in the 2023 NFL draft.
They no longer have their original fifth or seventh-round selections. They traded the fifth-round pick to the Buffalo Bills for offensive lineman Cody Ford. Their seventh-round selection was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders for cornerback Trayvon Mullen.
They have their original selections (the third in each round) in the first through fourth rounds and also the sixth. They received compensatory picks in the third, fifth and sixth rounds, giving them eight picks in six round.
They do not have a pick in the seventh round.
Here are their picks in the 2023 NFL draft:
