    Should the Cardinals Trade Down?

    Wrong. Because in this case we pick Murray at #4, and address DL with the late 1st from the Raiders or our early 2nd.

    It's official. Cards and K K are one Kliff Kingsbury Cards

    I'm shocked that there are Cards fans who want to trade DJ. Someone even stating that DJ being a family person is a bad thing for his play on the field. Lol! DJ used creatively in the passing game, and Kyler Murray opening up rushing lanes, will be a blessing to watch after last season's nightmare!

    First off season workouts will be April 8, not April 1. According to Weinfuss.

    Murray will be in the building on April 1 anyway to lead by example.

    Haason Reddick

    The switch back to 3-4 base should help him, because LBs can be used in multiple ways other than in a strict 4-3. When Reddick came in as a rookie, he made the difficult transition from college DE to NFL off-ball 3-4 ILB. But when Golden went down during the season, the initial plan was thrown...

    Gronk gone, will it matter to Brady and Belichick?

    Very unlikely. Both are among the very best TE prospects we've seen in recent years. There is no elite WR or OL prospect in this draft. I bet both Iowa TEs will be off the board by the early 20s. I see the Pats draft the Bama TE or Steinberger with the 32nd pick. Both are legit 1st round TEs...

    Keim's draft success

    Keim's credit stemming from his early success with BA is finally gone. He let a strong roster fall apart, botched the opportunity to draft a young franchise QB when Palmer was still playing but already aging/declining/thinking publicly about retirement. Then he was involved in hiring Wilks/McCoy...

    How many 4th quarter 4th-and-15 plays will Kyler Murray convert with his legs next season? O/U 3.5

    Decisions?

    Decisions have to be made. If Murray is deemed a great fit in KK's offense and a better QB talent than Rosen and things work out that way, it's all about selling Rosen to the highest bidder and never look back. The Cards (and Rosen) never expected to be in the situation to have the 1st overall...

    Russell Wilson in our Offense Last YR Or Tom Brady

    What else could he have said at that point? With Rosen being a 1st round pick last season and no other legit QB prospect on the roster. When Kyler Murray hadn't even declared for the NFL draft, let alone to pursuit football over baseball. Didn't BA praise Skelton and Lindley, who were on our...

    Kyler Murray, you will become a Cardinal. It is....

    In years past, a player of Murray's size wouldn't even have been considered at QB by the boldest college coaches. I'm not even talking about NFL circles. Bottom line, if he can play ball, 1 or 2 inches don't matter. Accuracy, athleticism and being smart avoiding unnecessary hits is all he needs...

    How Much More Accurate Can Rosen Become

    But how long will it take to get these things coached up? It's not just one thing you have to work on with Rosen, it's quite a few things. Even some excellent QB prospects who had just one particular weakness couldn't fix it over the course of their NFL career. They often become excellent QB...

    How Much More Accurate Can Rosen Become

    Our OL play was indeed abysmal. However, other teams suffer from OL injuries all the time and find a way to not totally embarass themselves. The Seahawks are in the playoffs each and every year thanks to Russell Wilson, despite fielding a horrible OL in most seasons. Did Rosen call the right...

    Decisions?

    If you can read between the lines, I think that Kyler Murray is our pick. Keim's recent interviews and KK's recent quotes on NFL.com are almost as if we don't have Rosen. Both are claiming that everything is still in the cards, only to come back later after being asked about Rosen to claim that...

    Owners to vote on onside-kick alternative

    I think in this case you have to try the old-fashioned onside kick just like it's always been. I like that the league is thinking about rules, because in some areas it's much needed. I don't know what I should think of this particular rule though. If it makes games more exciting, why not.

    Gronk gone, will it matter to Brady and Belichick?

    The Pats have always found solutions when Gronk was injured. Almost made it look like they didn't need Gronk. But they still love their TEs because a good TE is the ultimate chess piece on the football field. Blessed like they are, it happens that this and next year's TE draft classes are...

    Shawn Oakman

    He was never a good football player, off field issues aside. Being 6'9" and fairly athletic is what made him stick out, certainly not his play.

    Nitpicking Nick Bosa

    Was JG ever that good? He walked into perfect circumstances in NE and won some games, including against the then already declining Cards. JG took most of the glory, when he just played not to lose and had erratic moments. That's not bad, but really nothing to get excited about, especially when...

    Kyler Murray, you will become a Cardinal. It is....

    What if we get a mid or late 1st by one of the mentioned teams, and send back our 3rd or 4th in return? This way we would get a 1st for Rosen and give the receiving team the feeling they didn't pay a full 1st. Could also include a conditional pick if Rosen hits a certain number starts (or not).

    Kyler Murray, you will become a Cardinal. It is....

    Keim has stated multiple times how much he regrets missing on Russell Wilson. Because Wilson checked all the boxes, yet an inch or two let him tumble down our board. Even worse that he lead the Seahawks to a championship and will still keep torching us twice a year for a long time. Based on...

    Kingsbury’s learning curve.

    This sounds harsh, but all of this was known when we drafted Rosen. He was supremely talented, but never had the best accuracy for whatever reason. Overthrows, being too late, not leading his targets. Rosen is very smart, but under pressure his ability to read the defense goes totally out of the...

    Ideal draft scenario.

    Have conviction.

    Overlooked point. Our OL sucked, there is no doubt. But quite some teams suffer from abysmal OL play or OL injuries. Redskins lost all 5 starters and then some backups as well. In some grading system I saw, the Texans OL graded even worse than ours. The majority of sacks are on the OL. But I...

    Ideal draft scenario.

    If we already got offered a 2nd, I'm willing to bet that we could get a 1st for Rosen on draft day when the prices fly high.

    Ideal draft scenario.

    Why? They have addressed all areas on defense in free agency. Dee Ford, Kwon Alexander, Jason Verrett. They have many high 1st round picks already on their DL. Of course this shouldn't keep them from drafting Quinnen or Bosa if they believe in their talent. However, this would be another high...

    Cardinals signing DT Darius Philon

    This is because of the deep DL draft class. Philon had 2 good seasons in a row, just 25 years, and certainly expected more than a 2 year deal with just 5m guaranteed a week into free agency. Gunter is 2 years older than Philon and had just one season of production. I imagine at this point it's...
