The Arizona Cardinals have shut down almost all operations from team headquarters and the NFL has canceled all in-person visits with draft prospects but the Cardinals do have interest in a young pass rusher.
They are taking a look at Baylor defensive lineman James Lynch. According to Draft Wire’s Justin Melo, the Cardinals were among the team he was scheduled to have private visits with.
As Melo notes in his tweet, it might be a visit held via FaceTime now.
Lynch measured in at 6-4 and 289 pounds at the NFL combine and showed athleticism. He ran the 40 in 5.01 seconds, had a 29-inch vertical, a 9-3 broad jump and benched 225 pounds 23 times.
In 2019, he had 41 tackles, 19.5 tackles for loss, 13.5 sacks, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
Many believe he will be available between late Day 2 to Day 3 in the draft.
