Washington wide receiver Rome Odunze was reportedly set to have an official top-30 visit with the Arizona Cardinals after he visited the Chicago Bears on Thursday. That visit occurred on Monday, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
Odunze is one of the consensus top-three receivers in the 2024 NFL draft and the Cardinals certainly are considering him.
Odunze is 6-foot-3 and 212 pounds. After a 75-catch, 1,145-yards season in 2022, he had 92 receptions for 1,640 yards and 13 touchdowns last season for the Huskies.
He has size and athleticism. He is a 50-50 ball merchant, consistently winning on contested plays. He reminds some analysts of Larry Fitzgerald (although that is certainly an unfair comparison). He is expected to be drafted in the first 10 selections.
The Cardinals own the fourth overall pick. Odunze could be a target with that selection or could be an option if they decide to trade back out of the selection.
The NFL draft begins April 25.
