    Cousins Dollars Look Too High

    If the Cardinals sign McCown, the good part of that is that it means the QBOF plays sooner rather than later. But in the interim, McCown is competitive enough to win games.

    KC Star: Deal in Place to Trade Alex Smith to Washington

    Redskins got fleeced by Reid. Amazing how Reid manages to pull off trades like this. He gets a 3rd round pick, a talented starting CB in Fuller and clears $17M in cap space. Meanwhile all of the investments the Redskins made in Kirk Cousins prove fruitless, who now pay the 33 year old Smith...

    The QB Market: Yes or No?

    Potential Free Agents: 1. Drew Stanton---NO---very happy the way things ended for him in AZ. But, it's time for a fresh start. 2. Blaine Gabbert---NO---proved his critics have merit, after given golden opportunity. 3. Kirk Cousins---NO---let the Broncos, Jets or Jaguars overpay him. 4. Sam...

    Wilks and Coordinators: Clear and Concise

    I have a very strong feeling that any player who doesn't buy in will be buying a house in another state. Like Wilks said..."when you enter that door each day..."

    Wilks and Coordinators: Clear and Concise

    The good news is, Gary, that Wilks has made it clear that he and his coaches are willing and eager to develop the players SK sends their way---and tat they will adapt their schemes to the players' strengths---and make a determined effort to connect with all of the players, especially the ones...

    Wilks and Coordinators: Clear and Concise

    Great points, az jam. I did my utmost best to try to avoid mentioning BA and his staff in this blog. At one one point I erased saying" "With these coaches you won't be hearing descriptors like "elite" or phrases like "Hall of Fame." But, I recognize and appreciate (as you do) that for three...

    Kent Somers: Larry Foote staying. Who else might be?

    Was with Adrian Peterson in MN.

    Wilks and Coordinators: Clear and Concise

    When speaking at OC Mike McCoy's press conference, Steve Wilks reiterated his coaching philosophy of being "clear and concise." He said that in filling out his staff he is looking for coaches who are excellent teachers---ones who can relate to a wide variety of personas. With Steve Willks---the...

    Fantastic, Little Davis! Man, I much prefer the old uniforms to the ones we have today. Makes me nostalgic.

    Cards get Adrian Peterson in trade with New Orleans

    The tantalizing this is the Saints were going to release AP...if it cost the Cardinals 2 6th round picks...that's a lot when he could have been signed for less money and no lost draft picks.

    McCoy Live on Team Website

    Good point. McCoy himself said that the team plans to do "what's best for the organization" for years to come.

    2018 Cardinals' Top Salaries/Cap Hits (Rounded)

    As much as I like Veldheer and the great effort he put in to improve this season, he did unfortunately wind up on the IR the last 2 years and, John Wetzel might be just as good at RT. Could be the same with Will Holden.

    McCoy's Flexibility For Real

    I agree, blindseyed. Well said.

    McCoy's Flexibility For Real

    While the hiring of Mike McCoy as OC came as a disappointment to some of us, including myself, having heard what i heard from McCoy today, I completely understand why Steve Wilks, MB&SK tabbed him. Highlights: * Said he talked to several people in Carolina and was impressed with what he heard...

    Cardinals' 2018 Retool is On and QBOF is Off

    I agree with you about Andy Dalton. I would love the Cardinals to acquire him. Career stats: 62.3 % 25,534 yds. 167 TDs 93 ints 88.7 QBR Rushing stats: 1,049 yds., 18 TDs 98 1st Downs...only 4 lost fumbles in his 7 year career. He's a tough, smart and highly competitive QB. He needs to break...

    Big Puss had 2 Picks in the Pro Bowl

    Peterson remains a superb talent---but he's in denial of why his star has dimmed Yes, PP21 is one of the elite cover CBs in the NFL. But the game is evolving—-because of dual threat QBs and RPOs—-if forces defenses to mix in a hefty mix of zones. PP21 struggled in zones the last two years and...

    Super Bowl Monday Thoughts

    * The QB pool in this year's NFL Draft is deep and difficult to rank. Sam Darold (USC) and Josh Rosen (UCLA) appear to be the frontrunners, but Darnold is coming off an up and down season while Rosen is brash and has medical concerns (concussions). Josh Allen (Wyoming) is a physical dynamo, but...

    Some names to watch at the Senior Bowl

    Both White and Lauretta will be Day 2 picks (Rounds 2-3). A week ago before the the Senior Bowl, like you said, they were 4th to 6th roundes. There just are so many QB needy teams.

    Some names to watch at the Senior Bowl

    White really struggled in his bowl game. But it was great to see him rebound at the SB. I think that he will be taken in the 3rd round, where we have 2 picks if we haven't, per usual, drafted a QB yet.

    What to Expect From a Mike McCoy Offense

    Harry and everyone--- I am still trying to wrap my head around McCoy as OC...which veteran FA QBs or trade targets do you think would fit McCoy's system and personality the best? Which draft pick QBs? My guess: UFAs: Kirk Cousins or Sam Bradford Trade: Alex Smith or Nick Folk Draft: Mason...

    2018 Cardinals' Top Salaries/Cap Hits (Rounded)

    The tantalizing thing about TM is the thought of him going somewhere else and becoming the original Honey Badger again. Wilks is a superb DB coach who can help HB return to glory...but at $14M a year...like you said, it's way too much.

    2018 Cardinals' Top Salaries/Cap Hits (Rounded)

    Deone had a number of poor games this year. He started to improve at the end of the year, but way too little too late. His PFF rating was 37.8, ranked as the #79 LB.

    2018 Cardinals' Top Salaries/Cap Hits (Rounded)

    Not sure whether to believe that or not. I would think he is stoked that the Cardinals hired Steve Wilks as HC and would love to play for him even if it means reworking his current deal. I hope this is the case.

    2018 Cardinals' Top Salaries/Cap Hits (Rounded)

    Tyrann Mathieu---one would hope that the Honey Badger would be willing to work with the Cardinals on a revised contract. After all, the Cardinals took the risk of drafting him. Honey Badger repaid the Cardinals' trust in him and they rewarded him for that when they could have waited to see how...
