    Adrian Wilson Arrested For Domestic Violence, Fired By Panthers

    Major bummer. One of my favorites, as others have said.

    Cardinals RB Michael Carter hits salary escalator for 2024

    There goes our cap space! :eek:

    2024 1st round pick #4 is Marvin Harrison Jr

    My birthday is coming up and that's what I wanted. There's still a month and some change, but ehhh.

    Can a Rookie Revamp the Cards’ Safety Lineup

    I don't anticipate us re-signing Baker unless his market price drops from what he thinks it will be, which I think is pretty likely. I think he'll make less than his current deal because the safety market is oversaturated. Like, you can go sign Justin Simmons, Jamal Adams, or Quandre Diggs...

    2024 NBA Draft Thread

    I'm watching, with a lot less knowledge than I have about NFL prospects. I guess I'm hoping for Kolek?

    I'm really rooting for Elijah Jones

    Right on, I sincerely appreciate that you actually laid it out.

    I'm really rooting for Elijah Jones

    Which one? Edit: I should also ask - would you have taken them and considered them an upgrade over Wilson, or not signed Zay Jones?

    I'm really rooting for Elijah Jones

    In the past few hours, he's had interviews up on YouTube with AZSports. He's the first player drafted from Harlem. He seems focused on growth, and like a good human. I hope he emerges!

    $35.5M in cap space

    I guess my argument is that it isn't a position of need yet. We disagree on this being a "trying to win" year, in that I don't think we can win it all. I see our offense poised to take a big step, and two cost-controlled WRs would help get there, while improving our defense over time with a...

    $35.5M in cap space

    Not trying to pile on you (because others have said it), but why is this fanbase so averse to trying to develop our picks into useful players? I'm hoping it's just because Keim couldn't draft to save his life and we're in a state of shock. It baffles me that we don't want to give Wilson a...

    $35.5M in cap space

    Yeah, I don't see a world where we trade for CeeDee. It just doesn't make financial or roster sense. We have enough guys in the room to be solid. I think we want/need to let Michael Wilson show what he's got on the field. He fits the same description as your point about Williams, Melton, and...

    Arizona Cardinals Voluntary OTAs week 3. 06/03/24-06/09/24

    Josh Allen has been one of the best QBs in the league with no one of significant note outside of Diggs. Lamar consistently produces on an elite (MVP) level with mediocre WRs, and Mark Andrews as his main target. Herbert had Keenan Allen and Ekeler. They've all done more with less. All three of...

    Arizona Cardinals Voluntary OTAs week 3. 06/03/24-06/09/24

    Seriously... I keep reading these articles about our coaches and players beating each other to be there at 3/4/5 AM... is that necessary? Sometimes I wonder if it's just a soundbite.

    Arizona Cardinals Voluntary OTAs week 3. 06/03/24-06/09/24

    Heavily agreed. We've talked about getting weapons for Kyler like he's a 2nd/3rd round pick that should come with a bunch of limitations. And largely, we've gone and gotten them (DHop, his best friend in Hollywood Brown, Ertz, etc). I also agree with your more recent post that it's not...

    Waiting and seeing

    I'm also slightly optimistic but in wait-and-see mode. It does seem like there's a relatively cohesive plan. I'm not sitting here like I was with KK and SK thinking we're flinging poo at the wall every year hoping it sticks and they don't lose their jobs.

    $35.5M in cap space

    I agree that this is a lot of wasted cap space. I don't like it. If we extend Conner for anything more than a major team premium, I'll be grumpy. Froholdt, White? Ehhhh, I guess, but not to eat up cap for the sake of it. We could have done better.

    PFF Running Back Rankings: Top 32 ahead of the 2024 NFL season

    They're not me, but no, not entirely. Benson should automatically take carries away from him on a pretty regular basis. Not to mention Conner misses large swaths of games every year, and if Benson gets on a hot streak during that time... we'll see where things go.

    PFF Running Back Rankings: Top 32 ahead of the 2024 NFL season

    Looking at his career overall, they're not that far off. I know my take on Conner isn't popular, but he's generally a pedestrian guy with a lot of opportunity when healthy. I've always argued he's better off as part of a group, which he'll have now, so I bet he'll be alright. There's only 1-2...

    2024 1st round pick #4 is Marvin Harrison Jr

    I don't think young professionals get anywhere near this kind of hype or have any leverage in negotiation. Young people right now fresh out of college are still doing gig work or waiting tables in a lot of cases, and in the cases where they break into their industry, it's for whatever they can...

    2024 1st round pick #4 is Marvin Harrison Jr

    I think you're missing my point. Even if he doesn't make the roster he has a tremendous head start on almost everyone else his age. He can go be a bank teller with a brand new car and no worries about putting a roof over his head, so all of that income from bank telling can go into savings and...

    way too early cut to 53.

    What more do you want? It's at worst a league-average room.

    2024 1st round pick #4 is Marvin Harrison Jr

    It's weird to say that $250k at age 23 can only change your life in bad ways while advocating for others to get paid more right now while they can. Even with taxes taken out, it's a ton of money and can set him up for a paid-off car and renting a place for years without having to lift a finger...

    It was implied in a few articles I've read but I haven't seen exactly who that is.

    2024 1st round pick #4 is Marvin Harrison Jr

    Man, and god forbid some of us see this as life changing money we'd pretty much die for. Rookie undrafted free agents sign contracts for a league minimum years, and those salaries will be $795,000, $960,000, and $1.075 million over the next three. The Cardinals just paid Xavier Weaver $255,000...

    2024 1st round pick #4 is Marvin Harrison Jr

    At the risk of getting political at all, I support the lower individuals on the totem poles getting money, and standing up for themselves. One needs to stand up for themselves and make cash. Players should maximize their likeness. The world is dealing with the largest discrepancy of resources...
