As the leading wide receiver in a high-tempo offense at Arizona State, Strong brought in 75 receptions for 1,062 yards, and 10 touchdowns. His ability to make catches above receivers and along the sidelines would be a great commodity for the Cardinals’ offensive attack. Having Strong and Floyd as the red zone targets for Palmer would open the field up for dump-offs to Ellington in the flat.
