    Steve Wilks: Cardinals will be “very aggressive” in finding a quarterback

    I think Steve Keim is very pleased with Wilks. Whatever happened in MB's and SK's interview with John DeFilippo turned them off. I heard that the same thing happened with the Bears, the interview did not go well. And now knowing MB's agenda, JDF was not the right coach. I think Mike Munchak was...

    Cardinals' Compensatory Picks

    Because AP was a UFA when he was signed by the Saints. This is why the Patriots did not include QB Brian Hoyer in the Garoppolo trade, because Hoyer was a UFA and would have counted against their 2018 comp picks, so they just waited for SF to release him and then signed him.

    Cardinals' Compensatory Picks

    That's it. 3 picks in 3rd, 4th and 7th rounds. We would have had an additional 5th or 6th rounder had we not made the AP trade.

    Cardinals' Compensatory Picks

    They were awarded three, staring with the first comp pick of the 3rd round #97. The AP trade apparently did affect the number of picks. Waiting on the other two picks...likely a 4th and a 7th.

    Steve Wilks: Cardinals will be “very aggressive” in finding a quarterback

    Good read that is feasible, oaken1. But, SK's sour mood goes back to BA's retirement press conference, which was very curious in a few ways---first that BA elected not to take any questions (very unlike him)---yes, of course he was choked up, but he was very chummy with the media for 5 years and...

    2018 Cardinals' Defense

    Albright was activated to the 53 man roster the last few games of the season. He played STs and took a handful of snaps at OLB. He's long and athletic---needs added strength and counter moves on his pass rush. Here's a highlight video of him #95 at Miami (Ohio). Dora (was added to PS late in...

    2018 Cardinals' Defense

    I am going to try to cover the defensive planning and outlooks in one thread, particularly in light of how man key pieces for the defense are already in place. Cardinals' insider Mike Jurecki attended the Cardinals' meet and greet media session with the new assistant coaches and he came away...

    Steve Wilks: Cardinals will be “very aggressive” in finding a quarterback

    Wow, that's kind of harsh. What do expect him to say? What's very positive in all of this is how active a role Wilks is embracing in all aspects of team building. He does not want to be perceived as simply a defensive coach---which is why he has already delegated the defensive play calling and...

    Tyrod Taylor

    That's a likely scenario because they have 3 days after the start of the new year to decide on Taylor's option. if they sign a QB the first day or two, exactly as you suggest, then they can decline the option. Can't see a team trade for him.

    Tyrod Taylor

    If they pick up Taylor's option, then yes they still want him for at least another year. Otherwise, it's moot. He's not going to redo his contract again.

    NY Power Struggle Results

    I think the Giants may surprise everyone by signing a UFA QB, perhaps one of the 3 Minny UFA QBs (assuming Teddy B isn't tolled). They might be higher on Davis Webb as their developmental QB than people realize. Without question, their interest in S. Barkley is legit. Add a prolific RB to their...

    2018 Cardinals' Offensive Line

    I am very excited to see what new offensive line coach Ray Brown can do to upgrade and stabilize the Cardinals' front five. Key Decisions: * G Mike Iupati---he did have 15 starts in 2016, but had the worst year, grade-wise of his career, particularly in pass protection and he continued to...

    MadCards Cardinals 2018 Mock Draft v1.0

    The article says that DT Maurice Hurst of Michigan only works for a 43 as a 3 technique. It doesn't say anything about Edmunds and the 43. The amazing thing about Edmunds is that he could play any of the 3 LB spots in the 43 or any of the 4 LB spots in the 34. The Urlacher (in his younger more...

    Peter King - Predicts Cards will sign A.J. McCarron

    Good memory, Chris. I wanted McCarron in the 3rd round of the 2014 draft (we took Kareem Martin). Turns out we could have had him in the 4th round, where we took QB Logan Thomas instead. I have always liked him. He's smart, plays within himself, throws with accuracy and touch and came up big in...

    QB Preferences

    I watched the show too...and it just reenforced what a precarious spot the Cardinals are in this year drafting at #15 and being considered less of an attraction for UFAs than other teams. Louis Riddick talked about the Cardinals moving up to the top 6---but then Bill Polian reminded Riddick...

    QB Preferences

    There is no comparison with regard to which college QB was surrounded by NFL caliber talent. Michigan versus Wyoming. Why then is Josh Allen the #1 QB on Mel Kiper's board and the #2 QB on Mike Mayock's? Both of them think the completion % issues Allen had at Wyoming (being surrounded by...
