The Arizona Cardinals meet with a number of NFL draft prospects. Some will be undrafted and others will likely be selected throughout the draft.
One such prospect the Cardinals have interest in is California linebacker Evan Weaver.
According to Draft Wire’s Justin Melo, the Cardinals have lined up a private visit with Weaver.
Weaver was very productive in college. He had 181 total tackles last season with 11.5 tackles for loss and 2.5 sacks.
He is 6-2 and 237 pounds. He is not overly athletic but plays hard and has the trait Cardinals GM Steve Keim loves — he loves football.
Linebacker is a position of need for the Cardinals but they need someone more athletic to do work in pass coverage.
However, he is the sort of player teams always need on their roster, even if he isn’t a starter in the league.
