Arizona Cardinals sign OL Dennis Daley

[Chopper0080]

Monti the anti-Kiem

Both put out losing rosters so disagree

If you expected Monti to turn it around in year one with a mobile QB out with an ACL that's kinda on you

 

[ASUCHRIS]

When said quarterback is rehabbing an ACL and going to miss a bunch of games.

Please show me anywhere where anyone definitively states Kyler is going to miss a "bunch" of games.

Pure speculation.

i get news is slow

but, this is a league minimum guy who is taking 1/80 roster spots. Do we even know if he will play tackle?

you would think Monti just announced we signed our LT of the future

It is not the individual player, it is the overall group of players. When you say your plan is to build the lines, and then make them worse, people are justified in being critical of that.

 

[overseascardfan]

Maybe they are trying to force Murray to quit football so they don't have to pay him. Barring the draft the current OL unit on the roster is going to get him or whomever is playing QB killed.

FTFY

Except one is doing it on purpose and for good reason

I mean, yes. In isolation this move is a nothing burger. But the timing of it (in the first week of free agency) and with the context of everyone else, it suggests that all of these were priority moves for the front office.

You don't jump at the beginning of free agency on randos and camp arms; you fill in your roster with these dudes after the draft. There's probably a plan for these guys to compete immediately for snaps; it's really the only explanation for why the players would sign a minimum salary deal now, as well.

This isn't the Bears or the Lions plan. This is the Houston Texans model and it's why they're embarrassing. There's no "out" of this cycle, because we're going to have to re-sign a bunch of dudes again next year.

There's like a dozen guys working in the FO and all these deals at every level will be worked on at the same time.

It's not like Monti is working down a list on his own.

 

[DVontel]

I know we have discussed your feelings on a QB on a rookie deal and a roster than can't support him, but how is not supporting your 45 mil QB any better?

I’m low as hell on Monti right now with these FA moves, but I’ll wait until the draft to make a clear assessment.

This is probably my fav clip I've seen so far

LOL Most sacks given up. That's a great signing right there. Cue the explanations as to why it's a great signing...

Depth is the only one I can give you. Giving up 12 sacks in one year is impressive.

Hump has a 9 sack season.

100% Daley isn't a good tackle though.

 

[Dayman]

We have now signed the OT who gave up the most sacks last season and the Center who gave up the most sacks last season. If we can sign the Guard who gave up the most sacks last season, we will have the full set!

i think there is something to this-- especially in the absence of other moves

i still contend the level of angst is totally disproportionate

especially in light of a post by the one guy who has actually been paid for his takes on NFL players saying "he could be something at guard"

 

[sdscard4]

Only we sign 2 dudes who've given up the most sacks. You gotta be freaking kidding me. These Monties are killing me

 

[Proximo]

Based off of what? Hope?

Because this guy is an experienced starter. Our 4th OT is some undrafted free agent.

I mean yeah this guy is worse than I thought he could be when I first made the post, but he still has to be better than a guy off the street. With that said as bad as he appears to be I hope we never have to play him.

Shouldn't a goal of a team be to avoid some of the standout worst players when considering acquisitions?

He's literally a guy off the street.

Or do you mean that he's better than some random bum?

Bad experience is worse than no experience. You cannot tell me this is the best, cheap guy with experience available. Sorry, no. "But he used to play for the Titans!" is not a reason to sign him. That kind of blind homerism GM-ship dents Monti's already battered rep at this point. This FO isn't showing consistency in what they're trying to do, and it shows.

States they want to strengthen the lines then proceeds to make both lines worse immediately in FA.

Monti has no reputation until the final list comes out of camp.

And Gannon has no reputation until we see how that plays on the field.

lol If you say it, it must be true. The fans and people following the NFL in general will refrain from forming opinions on him until then, I'm sure lol Gimme a break.

 

[slanidrac16]

Copying the Bears and Lions in not historically a good idea.

At this point it’s either that or play the band-aid Keim philosophy.
This team is trash. We won 4 games last year with the players we had. How much worse can it get?
We are going to have to turn this roster over to get better. We are going to have to like it or lump it.
