NFL.com: Arizona Cardinals got a steal in UDFA Anthony Steen

May 12, 2014, 9:10 PM | Updated: 9:11 pm

Anthony Steen’s name was not among the 256 called throughout the three-day long NFL Draft.

But that doesn’t mean his football career has come to an end.

Steen was one of many players to sign with a team as an undrafted free agent, doing so with the Arizona Cardinals.

And according to Bryan Fischer of NFL.com, he is one of the top 10 UDFA signings.

Analysis: Steen’s flexibility in playing all of the interior-line spots will help him on the limited rosters of NFL teams, as will his ability to control talented defensive tackles. He’s a tad undersized and has short arms, but he can play and was one of the most reliable offensive linemen while at Alabama. He might not start right away, but he should be able to find a home in the NFL.

The 6-foot-3, 314-pound Steen started 36 of 51 games he played at Alabama, and was a second-team All-SEC selection in 2013.
