arly four months Black Jordan Hicks Jersey , but they’re not officially on the clock until Thursday night. And they’ve officially yet to decide what they’re going to do with the first overall pick in the draft.Coach Kliff Kingbury told reporters on Tuesday that the strategy for the No. 1 pick hasn’t been finalized.“We’re still working through things,” Kingsbury said, via Steve Wyche of NFL Media. “It is a process. I wouldn’t say the hay is in the barn.”Even with only two days to go, there’s no reason for all of the hay to be in the barn. But most of it should be there Jordan Hicks Jersey 2019 , enough to allow the Cardinals to have a direction in which they’re leaning. Indeed, if they don’t already know what they want to do, what’s going to happen in the next two days to allow them to make their decision?Chances are that they already know what they’d do if they were on the clock right now. Chances also are that the Cardinals realize that they gain nothing by tipping their hand. Interest in the ABC/ESPN/NFLN trimulcast will be maximized if the team (and ESPN/NFL) maintain a façade of uncertainty, and it would be foolish to presume that the parties who directly benefit from getting the most people interested in tuning in on Thursday night don’t want that uncertainty to be maximized.Why else would ESPN and NFLN’s top insiders be so silent regarding Arizona’s plans? Former NFL receiver Antonio Bryant’s repeated insistence that Nick Bosa not Kyler Murray will be the first pick cries out for something from someone who traffics exclusively in NFL transactional information. But by either confirming or debunking Bryant’s report Black Terrell Suggs Jersey , the cat will be out of the bag, and there will be less reason for anyone/everyone to tune in to ABC/ESPN/NFL Network on Thursday night at 8:00 p.m. ET.Or maybe an hour or two, in the event that someone who makes a living telling us what will happen five minutes before its announced gives us more than a five-minute head’s up (if that much) on what the Cardinals will do. Peyton Manning will be doing analysis of NFL games this season after all.ESPN and Kobe Bryant's Granity Studios announced Wednesday that Manning will be part of a football edition of the "Detail" franchise. The eight-episode series will be on the ESPN+ streaming service and debuts on Thursday.Bryant said during a phone interview with The Associated Press that he started discussions with Manning once "Detail" premiered last April."I had an idea in the back of my mind once I came up with it on where it can expand to other sports," Bryant said. "Peyton was the perfect choice. He seemingly spoke a foreign language while on the field but he can outline what he is seeing and why they are making adjustments.""Detail" debuted with 10 episodes during the NBA playoffs Terrell Suggs Jersey 2019 , often focusing on one player. The football iteration will carry the same blueprint. Manning's first episode analyzes Arizona Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen's game last week against the Minnesota Vikings.NFL Films will also work in collaboration with Granity Studios in producing and editing the series. Bryant said the series is an extension of Manning watching game film and saying what he usually wrote in his notebook.Manning was courted by Fox and ESPN for their Thursday and Monday night packages but he declined. Whether this is a first step toward him exploring a role as a full-time analyst beginning next season remains to be seen."I've always enjoyed talking football with coaches, players and passionate fans, and that's at the core of this show," Manning said in a statement. "I'm honored to help expand Kobe's Detail to a football audience."The NBA and the NFL aren't the only sports that "Detail" will focus on. A UFC edition will debut next year when ESPN takes over as the rights holder. Bryant is also interested in adding baseball and soccer editions.Bryant said a second season of NBA "Detail" is on track to debut after the All-Star break in February."I had fun looking at it analytically because that is hard to turn that off Marcus Gilbert Jersey 2019 ," Bryant said. "It is taking everything as is but seeing how film should be looked at. There is a curiosity in watching the game and the broad concepts. Then everything opens up as a young kid and athlete."Bryant was in Minneapolis on Wednesday but said he is excited to see LeBron James' home debut with the Lakers on Saturday against Houston."I think they are going to do better than what most people think. It is an exciting time for LA and to have that energy back," Bryant said.Follow Joe Reedy at s://joereedy
