There's few prospects that entered the draft process with hype levels similar to Harrison, though Jefferson himself being a first-round pick (though four wideouts were taken ahead of him) can attest.

What if the Cardinals don’t think Marvin Harrison Jr. can help give the franchise a fighting chance after years of being a punchline? I’m already on record as saying I think Harrison is the guy, but I’m not the one who’s going to hand an envelope to Roger Goodell in a few months.

The Arizona Cardinals made a no-brainer of a selection last April when they took Marvin Harrison Jr. out of Ohio State. Harrison has had a solid rookie season with room for improvement. Arizona is alive in the NFC playoff race at 6-5 on the season.

The Arizona Cardinals lost on Sunday in Week 12 on the road to the Seattle Seahawks in a 16-6 game. With the loss, the Cardinals fell out of first place despite being tied with Seattle with a 6-5 record.

The Arizona Cardinals came out of the bye week and suffered their first loss in over a month, falling 16-6 to the Seattle Seahawks on the road. They saw their four-game winning streak snapped, they fell out of first place in the NFC West and out of the NFC playoff picture,
