The Arizona Cardinals have strengthened their outside linebacker and defensive line units in free agency by acquiring players like Dalvin Tomlinson, Calais Campbell, and Josh Sweat. Despite these additions, the team still has room to improve its pass rush, as they ranked 25th in pressure rate last season. Pro Football Network suggests the Cardinals consider signing free agent DeMarcus Walker to further bolster their defensive line depth.
Walker, who recorded seven sacks for the Tennessee Titans in 2022, offers versatility by being able to play on both the interior and edge. While not a standout signing, he could provide valuable depth to the Cardinals' defense at a reasonable cost. General manager Monti Ossenfort's familiarity with Walker adds to the potential fit. Whether Arizona pursues Walker will likely depend on their draft strategy and the development of their current defensive line prospects.
