    Sanders Off Season Plan

    I'd rather keep DJ as a vastly overpriced, potentially unhappy passing down mismatch than losing out on a true blue chip player and drop down to the mid 1st.

    PFF drafting

    Even if you love the game you can fail. That's if you aren't smart enough, not dedicated enough, bad coaching, thrown to the wolves too eary, bad habits. I'd argue that the vast majority of NFL draft prospects loves the game. Look at it this way: Almost all people love to go on vacation. But...

    PFF drafting

    OL is even more subjective than any other position. However, look at the rankings and almost every lineman who is considered good or great is among the top of the rankings. A player like Pugh won't ever grade very well and therefore he is calling out PFF. He gets by with smarts and experience...

    RUMOR - Cardinals one of several teams interested in Austin Hooper

    All fine. Hooper is a really good receiving TE. Smooth glider with solid hands. But too often you see him running wide open for huge chunks in terms of TE yardage. Guess that's a nice side effect when you have arguably the most dangerous WR in the NFL and one of the better WR2, lead by one of...

    Interesting Comment

    Wirfs has been playing RT for Iowa, right? So if we keep DJ Humphries and insert Wirfs at his natural RT position, we might have a decent OL. DJ will never be elite, but I'll give you that he can do a job at the toughest position in the NFL. Wirfs is potentially a game changing RT. Left or right...

    PFF drafting

    I really like PFF. It's not the be-all and end-all. But in terms of subjective player grading it doesn't get any better than PFF. PFF's hit and miss rate is on par with other draft pundits. You have to realize that PFF is mainly about production and not about traits. However, without certain...

    Fix the D in Free Agency

    Ngakoue would kill it opposite Chandler Jones. They would easily have 30+ sacks between them. One can dream... Give me Epenesa over Judon. Epenesa isn't your flashy edge rusher, but he is a surefire top 15 pick in my book and as safe as an edge defender can be. Checks all the boxes: size...

    With the 8th pick in the NFL Draft......

    I don't think Becton is the best OT prospect in this class. Maybe 3rd behind Thomas and Wirfs. However, Becton has a crazy ceiling. Moving like he does in the 360-380 lbs range is crazy. With his pure size and wingspan, there is no pass rusher in the world that can get around him quickly. And...

    Right Knee Concerns for Hump ?

    Tough spot to be in. DJ is nothing special, average at best. Do you swing for the fences, let him walk and trust a rookie LT? Or are you willig to pay a below average LT above average LT money just to keep status quo? A lot will depend on Kugler. If he thinks that DJ can still improve, we should...

    RUMOR - Cardinals one of several teams interested in Austin Hooper

    Buyer beware! Hooper has just one year of worthy production. He is a smooth athlete, a glider with decent hands. Not the fastest, biggest or strongest by any means. Idk about his blocking prowess. What I do know is that Matt Ryan is a great QB when it comes to airing it out. Yet Hooper just...

    Trade down food for thought

    It depends. If Tua or Herbert fall to #8, we can probably get a nice package that would be tough to resist with so many needs. If 3 QBs go ahead of us, this means a true blue chip talent will fall to #8. Win-win.

    Cardinals Trade for RB Kenyan Drake

    The more I think about it, my guess is that no team will come close to breaking the bank for Drake. He didn't do anything in 3.5 years. Then explodes in a non-conventional offense with a running threat at QB. He has always been a homerun hitter for sure, but even back to his college days he's...

    2020 Senior Bowl

    I can guarantee that in the coming years lots of mid to late round WR talent will be available. Of course the number of truly elite WR prospects will vary from year to year. But WR depth in the draft won't be an issue until the college game goes away from the spread, which may happen in a few...

    Interesting Comment

    Almost every OT in the draft can be considered raw compared to other positions. There may be some very sound interior OL prospects, but not at a tough position like OT, let alone LT. Andrew Thomas is far ahead of DJ Humphries as a rookie, much more sound technically than Humphries was. Andrew...

    Could Sammy Watkins be the answer at WR?

    Haven't read any replies in this thread, just the the title. The answer is NO!

    With the 8th pick in the NFL Draft......

    Always a big risk for RB. Injury could totally kill his stock. But it's a crowded RB class this year. Next season's looks way thinner.

    Official: Larry Fitzgerald is Coming Back

    No matter how you twist and turn it, Larry Fitzgerald will always be The Greatest Arizona Cardinal ever. It's not even debatable. His jersey sales alone will top his salary. He gets the stadium and the whole fanbase going. He lifts the whole team. Larry to the Cardinals is easily worth twice as...

    Kyler Murray makes 2019 PFWA All Rookie Team

    Even if Nick Bosa turns out to be a top 5 pass rusher in the NFL from here on out. I'll take an above average QB over that each and every day. Look at the elite defense of the Bears in recent years. Since they had subpar QB play, they stood no chance to win a championship. We must build...

    Starting to warm to Simmons, but ...

    Now the Panthers are in dire need of a LB who can cover lots of ground. Simmons is the odds favorite to be their pick. Great player, but still much more of a projection than people want to admit. We've seen so many hybrids struggle before who did it all at college level. A true blue chip DL or...

    OT: another weird OBJ sighting

    Trade a 2nd round pick for OBJ to give KM a legit #1 WR!

    AFC/NFC Divisional Round Weekend. 2020

    I love watching Lamar. But all those hits he takes will eventually take a toll and slow him down. It might not happen for a few years. But watching his tiny legs twist and turn through traffic, he is bound to pick up an injury and playing on a gimpy leg for a player like him doesn't bode well...

    Drafting Andy Isabella over D.K. Metcalf... Damn!

    Just as easily Metcalf could've been another Stephen Hill. If he ended up with us, he most likely wouldn't have stood out much more than Isabella. DK isn't polished by any means, and his hands are shaky at best. But he fits perfectly what the Seahawks do, so hats off to them for making the right...

    Vance Joseph Returning As Cardinals Defensive Coordinator

    How can you fault VJ much for the bad players we rely on as starters? Our DL is lead by an aging Peters who is about average, and the rest are below average rotational DL at best. Chandler Jones and Hicks are great LBs, but the other two LB spots are clearly among the worst in the League. Our...

    Murphy is TRASH!

    Just like Kirk at WR, Murphy at CB makes a great #3. A decent #2 in the right scheme, and possibly a great one with some more experience. Can't see Kirk or Murphy turning into a legit #1. They are abouth what you should expect from a 2nd round pick. Certainly not busts, which is already a...
