| 29th April, 2006 - 4:22 pm |  RealGM - Matt Leinart's wait came to an end when the Cardinals selected him with the 10th pick.
Leinart likely would have been the overall top pick in the 2005 Draft, but decided to return to Southern Cal for his senior season.
While Leinart certainly lost a great deal of money by not coming out last year with his stock falling this year, he will have a host of weapons in Arizona. Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin are two of the best young wide receivers in the game and they gave their offense an even bigger boost by signing Edgerrin James this March.
Heading into Saturday's draft, many believed that the Titans would select Leinart, which would reunite the QB with his former offensive coordinator at USC, Norm Chow.
Leinart will be staying in Pac-10 country and will begin the season behind Kurt Warner on the depth chart, a former Super Bowl winner who is on his last run as an NFL quarterback. [READ] |
