One of the themes of this camp, as the Cardinals look to bounce back from a disappointing 7-8-1 season, is to concentrate on the little things. Nkemdiche said that's exactly what he's doing.
Nkemdiche could help fill a big hole left by the departure of Calais Campbell,NFL Jerseys China, the towering defensive lineman who signed a lucrative free agent contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
A second-team All-American out of Mississippi, Nkemdiche has the body and skills that any pro scout would love. But he was arrested after he fell out of a hotel window in Atlanta in December 2015. Marijuana was found in the hotel room.
He called his rookie year "a learning lesson."
They are different physically, for sure. Nkemdiche's body is more reminiscent of Darnell Dockett's. And Nkemdiche doesn't like to compare himself to anyone anyway.
"This is what I like doing," he said. "I like going for it. I like being aggressive, vertical, as long as I understand that my hands and technique matters and where I'm supposed to be matters and things like that."
"I'm not really going to replace Calais," Nkemdiche said. "It's going to be the best me and see what happens."
That adjective often fits Nkemdiche's play this training camp, too, but he's taking a low-key approach to what promises to be a much higher profile role.
There are no such concerns now,Wholesale Jerseys Authentic.
And he fits right into the Cardinals' attacking style.

The rookie appeared in five games and made just three tackles.
"For me it's really understanding plays and not being hesitant with what I want to do,holesale NFL Jerseys," he said. "It's a lot better when you can play with understanding what you have to do and how the defense actually works,NFL Jerseys China, because football's a game of inches and one inch can make you behind the play."
Asked before Friday's practice how Nkemdiche's off-the-field behavior has been since he came to Arizona, Arians said, "It's been fantastic, fantastic."
Nkemdiche took responsibility and insisted the incident did not reflect his true character.
"Just taking it day by day honestly, man, and trying to focus on the fundamentals that I'm being taught by my coach," he said, "and trying to work on my craft and get better, just taking it moment to moment."
"It was for me just to see how the ropes go as an NFL pro," Nkemdiche said, "and take it all in so I can keep getting better and working towards my goal as a pro.'"
"He's been very disruptive," Arians said, "and we look for him to — knock on wood — stay healthy and have a very solid year."
Still, he slid all the way to the Cardinals at No. 29 overall last year.
Nkemdiche still has to think too much rather than automatically know what he is to do on any given play.
Nkemdiche is still very young. He won't turn 23 until Sept. 19.
"My confidence is always sky high just because I know who I am,Wholesale Jerseys Outlet," he said. "I have so much belief in myself and I know what limit I can reach. My confidence is always at a prime. I just want to keep that and keep getting better as a player and a person and keep being a pro."
Between injuries and a need to mature as a professional, the 6-foot-4, 296-pound defensive tackle wasn't on the field much.
The Cardinals expect Nkemdiche to join Josh Mauro, Corey Peters and Frostee Rucker in the rotation in Arizona's three-man front.
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Anyone looking for Arizona first-round draft pick Robert Nkemdiche last season barely got a glimpse of him.
"That's the nature of the draft now," coach Bruce Arians said. "It's not 15 years ago where you plug and play a first-round pick. These guys need a ton of work to learn to become professionals. That doesn't mean if they don't play as a rookie they're busts. It means we're grooming them to probably take somebody's place and they're ready to go."
"They're looking for the best Robert," he said, "little details and just do my job and be the best me that I can be."
Nkemdiche is not alone among first-round picks who have had to sit a lot in their first season. D.J. Humphries didn't play a down for the Cardinals in the 2015 season. Now he's the starting left tackle.
