Arizona Cardinals OG Jonathan Cooper is the first guard taken in the top eight of the NFL Draft since 1982, when future Hall of Famer Mike Munchak was picked by the Houston Oilers with the eighth overall selection. Cooper is the first guard selected within the top 10 since University of Colorado OG Chris Naeole was taken with the 10th pick in the 1997 NFL Draft by the New Orleans Saints. It is also just the second time the Cardinals have used their first-round selection on an offensive guard.
