Another Dino 3 star recruit. Hello Sean Tucker
I have noticed they had an eye for DB talent. Garret, Cisco, Iffy, and Trill. i may miss a few but they knew what to look for.

From ESPN:
"The Cardinals are planning to use cornerback Garrett Williams in a hybrid slot-outside role this year, according to ESPN’s Josh Weinfuss.
Williams, a 2023 third-round pick, carved out a role as Arizona’s primary nickel defender by the end of his rookie season. He emerged as one of the NFL’s best slot corners in 2024, allowing a league-low 0.77 yards per coverage snap, per Pro Football Focus (subscription required). Williams is now set to step into a full-time role that will likely see him line up on the outside in base formations and slide into the slot for nickel and dime sets. That was already the plan before Starling Thomas and Sean Murphy-Bunting suffered knee injuries, but their absences will put more pressure on Williams to stay healthy and perform in both spots.
Williams only has 21 NFL snaps on the boundary, but he primarily played there in college. He said in July (via Weinfuss) that his thre years of starting experience at Syracuse will help him transition between outside and slot corner throughout the season."
