The Cardinals have another weapon for Kyler Murray, and the quarterback is going to like it. Arizona reunited Murray with Marquise “Hollywood” Brown.
He will join DeAndre Hopkins, A.J. Green and Rondale Moore atop the depth chart. Brown was Eric DeCosta’s first draft choice as General Manager, making the receiver a first-round pick in 2019. The Cardinals got Brown and a third-round choice (100th overall) for the 23rd overall choice.
Instead, the Cardinals dealt their spot – No. 23 overall – to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for 2019 first-round receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown, who ...
The Cardinals needed speed at wide receiver – "This guy, it's bombs over Baghdad, he can fly," Keim said – and it certainly makes Murray happy. But the money is only a small part of the equation. "(Brown) makes sense for a number of reasons," Keim said. "There are lots of playmakers," Kingsbury said. He also said he does not expect Brown's contract (or Brown's desire for an extension at some point) to be an issue. The Cardinals and Ravens kept the deal tightly under wraps.
In return, the Baltimore Ravens receive the No. 23 overall selection. This now leaves the Ravens primed for two first-round selections in the draft in back-to- ...
Last season, Brown played in 16 games, catching 91 passes for 1,008 yards and six touchdowns. The Ravens were needing to decide on whether or not to exercise Brown’s fifth-year option by Monday, May 2.

Wide receiver Marquise 'Hollywood' Brown requested a trade after the season ended and Baltimore worked out a pre-draft deal with the Arizona Cardinals.
I hope he's in the Pro Bowl," DeCosta said. "I hope the best for Hollywood, I really do. Brown was the Ravens' leading wide receiver last season, hauling in 91 passes and topping 1,000 yards for the first time. But Marquise came to me after the season and requested that he be traded. "It was something I anguished over for a long time. General Manager Eric DeCosta explained Thursday night that Brown requested a trade after the season ended.
Lamar Jackson had a succinct message when he found out Marquise "Hollywood" Brown was traded during the 2022 NFL Draft.
When we last heard from Jackson, he was professing his love for the Ravens despite the fact that he has not yet begun contract negotiations with the franchise. The Ravens were not done making moves; they moved back two spots in a swap with the Bills, and ultimately selected Iowa center Tyler Lindenbaum with the 25th overall pick. Brown, the top wide receiver on the Ravens last season (though tight end Mark Andrews had more receptions and yards), was traded to the Cardinals for the 23rd overall pick in Thursday night’s NFL Draft.
The Baltimore Ravens have traded wide receiver Marquise Brown to the Arizona Cardinals for the 23rd overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft.
Last season, Brown became the first Baltimore wide receiver to surpass 1,000 yards receiving since Mike Wallace did so five years ago. Brown, 24, was productive but inconsistent in his three seasons with the Ravens. He totaled 195 receptions for 2,361 yards and 21 touchdown catches. The move reunites Brown and Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray, who played together at Oklahoma in 2017 and 2018.
The Cardinals landed a standout wide receiver in the first round, but he won't be a rookie this season. Arizona sent their first-round pick (No.
Hollywood to the desert,” Murray tweeted. @Primetime_jet.” Arizona sent their first-round pick (No. 23) overall to the Ravens for Marquise “Hollywood” Brown and a third-rounder (No. 100). The wide receiver is coming off a career year — he eclipsed the 1000 receiving yard mark with 91 catches — and has one season left on his rookie deal.
Marquise "Hollywood" Brown, who was shipped to Arizona along with the No. 100 overall pick, was the Ravens' leading wide receiver last season.

Jackson’s reaction to the team trading away Brown may not have any effect on contract talks in the long run, but it is certainly worth monitoring for now. Brown was drafted by General Manager Eric DeCosta with the No. 25 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft — his first-ever selection after taking over for Ozzie Newsome at the position. The two also developed a close relationship off the field.
