    Sign Gabbert now - then try to improve at QB

    Why keep living in the past. Let Stanton and Gabbert find new gigs elsewhere and start afresh with 3 new QBs.

    Yes, in recent weeks, after looking deeper into Mayfield and trying to project his prospects as a pro, I have become skeptical. You are right on in thinking that I am concerned about him being a fit with Wilks and McCoy---and to me that answer is a clear no. After watching Mayfield at the Senior...

    Haha! You nailed it. Troosh told me that night that all he really wanted to do was dance and that he didn't care whether some women would say no. As you point out, the anecdote is not meant to suggest that the Cardinals wait for their 14th choice. It was just meant to highlight the spirit of...

    The completion % issue is too over-blown, imo. Look at Tom Brady's stats at Michigan (surrounded by much more talent than at Wyoming): 4,773 yards, 61.9%, 7.5 yap, 30-17 TD/int, 134.9 QBR. Josh Allen: 5,066, 56.2%, 7.8 ypa, 44-21 TD/int., 137.7 QBR. Did you know that in 3 of Brady's first 6...

    Gentleman's bet Jackson goes top 10? I feel 100% certain he will.

    No because Randall Cunningham was a thinner, faster version of Cam Newton. I would liken Jackson to Michael Vick (a right handed version)---similar arm strength and explosive running ability. Jackson is a tougher finisher on his runs.

    I can't picture the Cardinals taking Mayfield...especially not with the coaching staff they just hired. I can see the upside---if he were a tad faster I'd like his chances more. In the NFL he's going to get boxed in and outquicked much more than he did in college.

    I once watched a good friend of mine, John "Troosh" Truccio, despite looking at an empty dance floor, go and ask woman after woman after woman to dance---and each time he got shot down I got more and more red in the face, while Trooosh remained steadfast and undeterred. Six women, seven, eight...

    OT: Bengals QB AJ McCarron to be Unrestricted Free Agent

    Sure, Garth. PFW just posted a thread asking is A.J. McCarron this year's Case Keenum or Mike Glennon? After hearing reports that McCarron wanted big money, he came out and said that he doesn't really care about the money---he just wants to play and win. if that's the case, then if the Cardinals...

    Rumor out of Cleveland

    Cleveland has the cap space to do it. It's feasible. The trade would have to be done the first day of the new year, March 14th, when TM is due his $5M roster bonus. Can't see the Cardinals paying that and then trading TM. However, why take on TM's $14M a year salary when at #4 they could draft...

    OT: Bengals QB AJ McCarron to be Unrestricted Free Agent

    But, in light of Glennon, shouldn't teams be leery of paying unproven QBs in the neighborhood of $17-19M a year?

    If you ever wanted Cards to sign Glennon, this is it!

    The Bears made a mess of this whole thing. No question. It cost them $18M. And John Fox's job, which Bears fans thinks is a good thing. But the GM never got him a QB he could win with. Total carousel.

    Reports are that McCarron wants big money. Really? Good luck with that.

    Trading up in the Draft for a QB

    I think it would have to involve both the #21 and #22 picks and a player of note.

    Free Agent Guide

    Man, I totally agree on Jerick McKinnon---love that guy. Gabriel and Burton too. Yes to Kelemete and Long too. You are right on the money. The one who will likely command the most $$$ is TE Trey Burton. Sportrac guesstimates him at $7m a year. Not sure it will be that much, but after paying...

    Assistant coaches signed

    Kevin Garver was the assistant to WRC Daryl Drake. Now Garver gets his shot.

    If you ever wanted Cards to sign Glennon, this is it!

    Carson Palmer struggled for half a year the first year in BA's system---not sure it is the most accurate indicator of a QB's talent and ability when learning a new system and trying to establish chemistry with new skill players.

    If you ever wanted Cards to sign Glennon, this is it!

    Glendale Glennon! if anyone knows Glennon, Steve Keim does. North Carolina St. decided to let Russell Wilson go in favor of starting Glennon. I don't think he's as bad as the general perceptions of him are. He's played on losing teams in the NFL who drafted QBOFs. In week 1 this year versus the...

    Plus, the bizarre incident at the Combine, where he got pissy (pun intended) with the medical attendants, so much so that he was sent home.

    Which QB in this draft will be the next Tom Brady?

    In terms of making the most out of the Patriots' style of a short to intermediate passing attack, I think Luke Falk may be the best in this QB class.

    Interesting phone call

    I think MB is realizing that he and the team need to reach out to the fans more, which is why he is promoting this new Facebook series in order to, as he said this morning on Doug and Wolf, "give the fans more insider perspective on the decision making process and to make what we do more...

    Steve Keim Vindicated

    Well said, Jeff. But, without question, a 4 year contract extension (2 years before the first contract runs out) is a clear indication that MB does not blame SK in the least for the woes of the past two years. In his presser today, all MB talked about what how "successful" Keim has been. While...

    2012 QB draft

    It's amazing to me how the so-called draft experts and pro scouts can't evaluate college QBs worth a sheet. So much of how well a QB does depends on what team drafts him, what system he has to learn (and try to master) and what coaches believe in them. For example, would Carson Wentz his rookie...
