Description: Cardinals receiver Michael Floyd has been running ahead of Andre Roberts so far in OTAs, according to the Arizona Republic. | Insight: Floyd was taken 13th overall by the Cardinals in the 2012 NFL Draft but was behind Roberts for most of the season. He did have eight catches for 166 yards and a touchdown in Week 17 to finish with 45 receptions, 562 yards and two scores in his rookie year. With Bruce Arians' vertical offense in place and Carson Palmer under center, it should be a bounce-back year for Arizona's passing attack. | | |

Description: Arizona Cardinals rookie wideout Michael Floyd is expected to see his playing time increase now that the Cardinals have had their bye week to make changes, according to a report in AzCardinals.com. | Insight: Before the bye he was sitting behind Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Roberts and Early Doucet. It appears that Roberts will move to the slot and Floyd will play on the outside opposite Fitzgerald. Doucet is now the odd man out. | | |

Description: Arizona Cardinals rookie wideout Michael Floyd will see his playing time increase, according to coach Ken Whisenhunt. | Insight: At this point we can't see Floyd getting enough opportunities to have any fantasy value this season. He's still sitting behind Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Roberts and Early Doucet. And of course his quarterback is either John Skelton or Kevin Kolb. | | |

Description: Arizona Cardinals rookie wideout Michael Floyd will likely start the season as the team's No. 4 receiver behind Andre Roberts and slot receiver Early Doucet, the Arizona Republic reports. | Insight: While we expect Floyd to get plenty of reps with the first-team offense eventually, this news makes him a fringe draft pick at best, even in 12-team leagues. | | |

Over the final nine games Roberts caught 38 balls for 453 yards and two scores. | | |

Description: Arizona Cardinals Michael Floyd is getting praise from head coach Ken Whisenhunt. "He's worked hard," Whisenhunt said. "That's one of the things we liked about him." | Insight: Floyd will likely start from Week 1 opposite superstar wideout Larry Fitzgerald. Floyd, who Cris Carter called the most "NFL-ready rookie receiver" could possibly become a 1,000-yard receiver in his first year given all the attention to Fitzgerald. He has the talent, it will depend on the quality of the quarterback play. | | |
