    Budda Baker moving back to free safety for Cardinals

    Good for Budda. Mathieu had one remarkable season covering the slot. After Mathieu got injured and wasn't able to return to his playmaking ways for us, which lead to him ultimately being cut, Budda was basically "forced" into the full time slot role. Budda is a playmaking instinctive roaming...

    Good article on Ed Oliver. The writer compares him to John Randle.

    I've been very impressed by Oliver. All he does is causing disruption. I don't care if he's doing it at 280 or 290 lbs. Oliver is more of a game breaker than Quinnen imo. Put him next to a strong NT and Oliver will sniff out runs in the backfield. On passing downs his quickness will embarass...

    Mason Cole

    Cole didn't look very good as a rookie, but at least he was durable through all 16 games, played hard, showed his athleticism. Entering year two his functional strength will be improved as well, which was his biggest flaw. Many Pro Bowl caliber centers are relatively weak compared to other OL...

    What small school draft prospect will the Cardinals draft in rounds 3-4?

    The beauty of Keim's small school love affair: It's impossible to predict!

    Cardinals re-sign Gunter

    Actually it was our former DL coach Buckner who set up a meeting with Gunter at his lowly hometown football field. Buckner stood on the table for Gunter on draft day.

    pick 33

    Common sense would dictate to go offense with #33. Because if we go Bosa/Q at #1, offense seems the best bet at #33. And if we pick Murray at #1, you better get him more weapons/protection at #33. Given that we just hired an innovative offensive mind as HC, offense at #33 seems set in stone...

    Josh Rosen and Kyler Murray?

    There are basically 3 ways you can build a contender: 1. You can build an elite defense and go all the way with an average QB. Although even your average QB absolutely has to go on a hot streak during the playoff run, like Flacco did. On the flip side, you can't realistically keep an elite...

    Cardinals hosting Nick Bosa, Quinnen Williams on Thursday

    Anything can happen between now and the draft. It's still 3 weeks. Doing due dilligence on the top 5 or so prospects when you hold the 1st overall pick is a no-brainer.

    How stupid will we look?

    At least we would've tried for once to fix the Qb position. And not again relying on catching an aging lightning in the bottle once in a decade for a couple of seasons...

    Fool Me Once

    If everything works out - be it with Rosen or Murray - I won't care under which promise KK got the gig.

    Several Teams Pursuing Josh Rosen

    I think the conception about Murray being a better fit in KK's offense is misunderstood. I'm 100% sure Rosen fits KK's offense. However, KK was hired not based on his sytem, but because he is supposed to be a great offensive mind. Now imagine a great offensive mind having a QB with worldclass...

    Several Teams Pursuing Josh Rosen

    This! I'm okay with whiffing on the 1st overall pick if it's on a QB. This franchise has never had a legit franchise QB. All we got in recent memory is two nice runs with Warner and Palmer very late in their careers. That's why I won't settle for a potentially really good DE or DT with the 1st...

    Keim is on the clock

    Indeed I see things differenty. I'm not a Rosen hater by any means. Like the guy, his talent and his demeanor. He was put into a horrible situation last year. I've never liked Bradford, but at least he was a seasoned, smart veteran who has seen it all. I thought he could still complete some...

    Keim is on the clock

    Can't imagine this, although it seems to be the popular opinion. The whole world (including SK and MB) knew that we needed a young talented legit successor for Palmer, who was thinking openly about retirement already the year before. Given BA's standing with SK and MB, I doubt that they wouldn't...

    Keim is on the clock

    In this case, it's even more baffling that BA didn't pull off his suit and jumped onto the table naked to make his case for Mahomes. In favor of a converted DE from Temple to play LB... Well, I guess being out of Temple did the trick for BA.

    Several Teams Pursuing Josh Rosen

    Looks like the Rosen market is heating up! If the Redskins, Dolphins or Bengals enter the hunt as well, we could actually be surprised how much we get for Rosen. Seems like a foregone conclusion in league circles that Murray is going to be a Cardinal.

    Fantasy Land Question: Pick #33

    Even if he tore his ACL between now and the draft, I don't think he would fall to #33. More likely scenario: In what is the most loaded DL draft in recent memory, one of the 1st round DL prospects slips to #33.

    The Dexter Lawrence Conundrum

    What's fake news? I know that Swearinger will be a good player for us. I didn't even say he is worse than Jefferson. Just that Jefferson is technically more sound, more disciplined, probably because he has to make up for lack of athleticism. Swearinger will go more frequently for the big hit...

    Keim is on the clock

    That's wrong. This is the same offense Baker Mayfield operated in. It's not a pro style offense by any means, but some concepts aren't that different as we've been hearing from the Browns and Mayfield himself. Protections, route combinations, checks have similarities to NFL concepts. Actually...

    Kingsbury to allow Cardinals 'cellphone breaks'

    Kyler Murray doesn't do any cellphone breaks. He will keep studying the playbook when all other players gaze into their phones.

    Cardinals signing DT Darius Philon

    Actually I think length isn't very important for the NT position. In fact, I think shorter NTs with a lower center of gravity have an advantage. Low man wins!

    The Dexter Lawrence Conundrum

    Tony Jefferson is fundamentally more sound. He is athletically probably even worse than Swearinger, who isn't very athletic himself by NFL DB standards. But Jefferson plays with superior technique paired with great instincts, which allows him to cover TEs. Swearinger is more about instincts, but...

    Kingsbury to allow Cardinals 'cellphone breaks'

    I don't like this either. KK is the anti-BB it seems. Every 20 minutes are you kidding me?!
