2025 Arizona Cardinals off season thread.

[outcent13]

It's a re-build.

Monti can't be held responsible for MB's historical ineptitude.

4 wins, 8 wins, and 2025 will be a pivotal year. Let the man execute his plan and then judge him.

Agreed. There is a big difference in cap space and an owner that allows you to write big checks.

historically, Albright has been dialed in to what the Cards are up to

I predict nothing on day one.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

I predict most of our predictions will not happen.

Trey Hendrickson would qualify as significant. Sweat or Milton Williams not so much.

 

[slanidrac16]

Wouldn’t it be great to hear the Cards made 2 or 3 bigs signings on day one and two ?
But alas, that would be so uncardinalesque.

One big would be nice. Hopefully Jonah Williams is telling Trey Hendrickson how awesome JG and his staff are.

 

[slanidrac16]

Hendrickson alone would make a huge impact on this defense. Add Reddick ( Koonce)?, and BOOM, everybody on this defense is better. We’d possibly be adding 25 sacks to this defense not counting pressures. This defense would be legit.
Trade down and pick up a DT , wow.

Monti, It’s sitting right in front of you. We would be a legitimate division and playoff contender. Come on man. Reach for the brass ring.

The Arizona Cardinals have inquired on Bengals All-Pro DE Trey Hendrickson, per source.

Getting Trey Hendrickson and Denzel Ward would make the Cardinals instant contenders and make the team exciting again. They have the money and draft capital to make it happen. Would probably have to use next year’s number one as well.

I think our second (#47) and a 2026 4 or 5 should get it done. The Giants got a much younger Brian Burns for a second (#39) and a next year's 5.

The big question is how much does he want and for how long. Ownership would have to be onboard with the contract and I'm not sure it would be.

I’m all for giving up a second rounder instead of a first. I just think that many teams will offer that and out bid us.

No man,..just no. Hendrikson is already 30

Someone already pointed out though, his career snap count is a lot less than others younger than him.

Played very little his first few years with Saints. The proverbial late-bloomer.

My snap count was even lower.
But at 33 I still lost a step

I believe they will try. I don’t necessarily believe Monti will get it done.

 

[GatorAZ]

Monti isn’t trading high picks for a veteran but he would sign big name difference makers in FA if it was his call. I don’t think it’s ultimately his call though.

- The Seahawks are blowing up their team (at least offensively)

- The Niners will be good but they’re in decline age & cap wise

- Stafford could fall off a cliff any minute given his wear & tear plus age

If you have to overpay $10-15m for a guy that could make a 1-2 win difference over the course of a season you got to pull the trigger b/c the division is deteriorating.

30 isn’t an issue for me. He would still give the cards at least 3 good years. Sign him to a 4 year contract and reevaluate him in year 4

Your 33 is like a professional athlete's 40...maybe even 45.

I'm sure he has a few good years left. But imo 3 good years is not worth 47.
A couple 3's... but not 47

Wrong. Dude, I ran a 4.5 at 270. Was a world class athlete... I've known lots of pro athletes and many of them couldn't keep up
Had I not broken my back at 19......?
