Arizona Cardinals first-round pick Isaiah Simmons played five positions at Clemson, but head coach Kliff Kingsbury wants to see how Simmons will do at just one position in the NFL. The Cardinals think "the sky is the limit" if the eighth overall pick in the draft can focus all of his efforts on learning just one position. The 2019 ACC Defensive Player of the Year and Butkus Award winner played 303 snaps at cornerback, 218 at safety, 160 at outside linebacker and 121 at inside linebacker last year. Defensive coordinator Vance Joseph said that Simmons will primarily be a linebacker but will be used in various other roles, mainly to cover tight ends. General manager Steve Keim said Simmons has the ability to be a "Swiss Army knife" for this defense.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerRead More News
