Actually paints Boone in a pretty good light...Struggled early, but came on throughout the season and graded out fairly well. Wouldn't take pay cut and was released. Not unusual circumstances...see: TJ Ward.

Even from Guernsey's article:

Boone was one of the top-40 guards in the NFL last year (ranked 37th by Pro Football Focus, and 30th by Bleacher Report’s Top-1000 project), and performed far better by the end of last year than he did at the beginning, when he struggled. In pass protection, Pro Football Focus gave Boone a 97.7 score in Pass Blocking Efficiency, which tied for fifth-best among guards.



But you know, just make stuff up if you don't have any facts, it's easier I guess

Well if you pay attention instead of trying to urinate on the parade, you would know it's about the money. They (MN) wanted him to take a pay cut and he politely declined.

Yup...and for this same reason if Phil Dawson suddenly struggles or gets hurt, Janikowski will probably be on the street and available.

I always say don't let facts get in the way of a good story.

Can never have enough good Olinemen and it appears Boone is already our best backup. He still has to learn the playbook so I don't know if he will even be active for week 1.

Did we see how big his contract is?

He's our Brock.

Ohio State guy. Talent has never been the issue with Boone. Beer/liquor, and lots of it, was his issue when he was younger and the reason it killed his draft stock.

I'm curious to see how he takes it if he ends up as just a backup. He's loud and his comments could be an issue if he gets unhappy. He has talent, but his knees have been an issue recently and it has impacted his run blocking. Perhaps he's better now. I think this is a good risk as I've commented on how thin I think the line is. I just hope he fits in as he could be a significant asset.

Please, Janikowski will be at a Subway with a meatball sub in his hands.

I would think we made it clear that we wont be plugging him in as a starter immediately when he doesnt even know the playbook. I figure this is a just in case, depth signing.

Boone won't dress for week 1. The coaches will let the whole thing work itself out. In the meantime it gives the coaches a chance to assess how Boone can help them.

Anything but #75...

In all seriousness, that dude looks to be in great shape.

Alex Boone's 1-year deal with #Cardinals is worth $1.4 million. Max $2M with playtime incentives. Still gets his $3.4M from #Vikings, too.

If Boone plays, Iupati may not see the field again. Only a lukewarm take.

Would Daryn Colledge have kept Iupati off the field?
