    2nd round pass rush possibility: Dontay Moch

    Moch is the guy with the freaky 40 yard dash time, the proverbial workout warrior type. In this case, I actually think that label has worked against Moch as most list him as a 3rd round project. However, if you look at Moch's stats at Nevada, he is not just a workout warrior. Moch has produced...

    Mayock's Mock Draft: Cards take Patrick Peterson.

    Mike Mayock just put out his one and only mock draft and he has the Big Red nabbing Patrick Peterson with the 5th pick. He said the pick of Peterson means the Cards are serious about regaining control of the NFC West and that the team is confident in landing a free agent quarterback. An...

    K9's Final First-Round Projection and Cardinals Mock Draft

    Good mock draft. I still think Robert Quinn is in play especially if we trade down a few spots. Agree on Peterson being the choice if we stay at #5. Mike Lombardi thinks we may go with the TE from Notre Dame with our 2nd round selection. I too think Reed is the target, but Dontay Moch is getting...

    IMO: Whisenhunt's "Impact Player" statement means immediate impact (No QB)

    I can't say I 100% agree if this is his intention with the #1 pick, but it is encouraging if Whisenhunt really thinks we are an immediate impact player away from retaking the NFC West. In looking at the top players, I would define impact player as being a player who is ready to contribute...

    Rod Graves playing the game.

    I've always thought that if a trade down would happen, it would involve Blaine Gabbert and most likely to the Tennessee Titans. Gabbert to the Titans just seems to fit. New coaching staff in Tennessee and Gabbert is the kind of no nonsense, gym rat that helps to erase the bad taste of the Vince...

    Cardinal Tough: OLB Situation

    Mitch, while I certainly appreciate and admire the dedication you put into these posts, I have a feeling you are going to be disappointed with the level of success that Ryan Kerrigan will have in the NFL. Great effort guy, great weight room/controlled athletic movement numbers that can be...

    The Big Guys Say Gabbert

    I agree and that really is the dilemma facing the Cardinals. The wealth of defensive talent is staggering in this draft, but to overlook our quarterback situation is crazy. If we are banking on Marc Bulger and John Skelton to lead this franchise forward, I worry that we are heading back to the...

    The Big Guys Say Gabbert

    Joe, just admit you hate Gabbert. Matt Ryan had 15 touchdowns and 10 interceptions his junior year. He followed that up with 31 touchdowns and 19 interceptions his senior year. Ryan had 654 pass attempts his senior year for a whopping 6.89 yards per attempt, almost identical yardage per...

    Cardinal Tough: Assessing the QB Situation

    Toughness at the QB position is important, but not as important as accuracy, ability to read defenses, and the physical skills to get the job done. Josh McCown was tough, but he was a lifetime back up quarterback. I'll take a prima donna quarterback who can light it up over a tough guy any...

    What Goes Around..........

    I agree. Good explanation of the process. Robert Quinn was the guy we heard about early in the process (December/January) as a player the Cardinals really liked. Once we roll around to April 28th, I wouldn't be surprised if Robert Quinn is a Cardinal.

    The Big Guys Say Gabbert

    I'm not a big Gabbert fan, but he has to be in the conversations for the #5 pick. I think we have been talking draft so much these past 4 months that many of us forget how horrible the offense and particularly the quarterback play was this past season. As things stand right now, the Cardinals in...

    Interesting Draft Rumors swirling - concerning Running Backs.

    I agree Joe 100%. I've been saying for a long time that Whisenhunt isn't enamored with our backs. Very interesting stuff. The Jones kid from Eastern Washington is expected to run in the 4.3's at his pro day. I heard that he was unable to run at the combine due to injury, but may be the fastest...

    Analysis of Nebraska vs. Missouri 2009 & 2010

    The Sam Bradford example is not a real good one. The knock on Bradford coming out was that he played in a spread offense that allowed for huge passing lanes and wide open recievers and one that created quarterbacks with inflated numbers that didn't translate well to the NFL. Also, Bradford...

    Charlie Casserly rates Gabbert ahead of Sanchez, Freeman, and Flacco

    Ex GM Charlie Casserly, now of NFL Network, said that Blaine Gabbert rates ahead of Mark Sanchez, Josh Freeman, and Joe Flacco in terms of where he is at as an incoming rookie versus those players when they were coming into the league. He said that Gabbert is a better athlete than all 3, has a...

    My Most NFL Ready Rookie All-Star Team 2011

    How is Ryan Kerrigan NFL ready as a SOLB when he played 95% of the defensive snaps at Purdue in a 3 point stance? I like Kerrigan too, but he more than any of the defensive ends will take time to adjust to dropping into coverage. I've seen quite a few Purdue games and Kerrigan is a guy that you...

    Jeff G's 7 Pick Cardinal Mock

    Excellent work Jeff! That is some cool stuff. I really like how you broke down the rounds 2-7 and how our first round pick can impact where we go later in the draft. Excellent choice with the 2nd round selection. Being able to play multiple places on the offensive line is very important. I'm...

    Good point. My bias towards Quinn is hard to hide. Thanks for the reality check.

    The interview with Butch Davis regarding Quinn was very telling. Davis is a defensive line guru and he said Quinn was as good as any lineman he had ever coached. He emphasized the incredible balance and power Quinn plays with and attributes that to his years as a wrestler (2 time state...

    Robert Quinn Pro Day results-4.58 40 at 264 pounds

    The kid has arms that hang down to his knees. Being built like that means you are moving 225 pounds alot farther than some barrel chested guy with short arms. 24 reps is plenty strong. That is 3 more reps than Marcel Dareus had.

    Robert Quinn Pro Day results-4.58 40 at 264 pounds

    I always respect your opinions Mitch, but I think you have it wrong in regards to Quinn. He had one spectacular sophomore year and a freshman year that was very solid considering that he was less than a year removed from having a tumor removed from his brain. The doctors told him he would never...

    Robert Quinn Pro Day results-4.58 40 at 264 pounds

    The kid grew up in North Charleston, South Carolina one of the roughest and poorest areas in the country. Some slime ball agent came to him and he made a mistake. It's not like he was snorting cocaine. He admitted his mistake and is ready to move on.

    Robert Quinn Pro Day results-4.58 40 at 264 pounds

    Not bad!. NFL Network showed clips of the workout and one of the head coaches they showed in attendance was Ken Whisenhunt. Mike Mayock said that Quinn was the one guy with "issues" (injury concerns, suspension, character issues etc.) that he would take a gamble on as a top 10 selection. Mayock...

    Robert Quinn: NFL Network says he is great at "Setting/Leveraging the Edge"

    During the weekend, I caught a clip where the NFL Network analysts were debating between DeQuan Bowers and Robert Quinn. I found it really interesting when they gave Quinn the edge over Bowers not because of athleticism or speed, but because he is terrific at leveraging/setting the edge...

    Aldon Smith-Don't be surprised if he's in the discussion at pick #5

    Smith is a 3rd year draft eligible sophomore much like Larry Fitzgerald was back in 2004. He had something like 12.5 sacks and an impressive number of tackles for loss and was the runaway winner for newcomer of the year in the Big 12 in 2009. The leg injury (broken tibia) sidelined him for...

    Aldon Smith-Don't be surprised if he's in the discussion at pick #5

    I posted a thread about 2 months back about a discussion I had with a Missouri fan regarding Aldon Smith. He told me that Smith was the most dynamic athlete Missouri has produced in a long time and Missouri has cranked out some really talented football players. He said that Smith was being...
