Bring Back Calais Campbell!

[Cardinal88]

It's time to recruit and sign CC to come back home! Yes, we know he is going to be 39 this year.

I don't have access to most of the grading systems (PFF, etc.) but from what I can tell, he has graded out as one of the better DL with an overall PFF grade of 82.3 which includes 66.2 in pass and 85.9 in run defense. Some ratings have him with a 87.5 run grade with a pass-rush grade of 74.3. By far anything we've had in a while.

What does everyone think? I think it would be worth it to bring him in and let him lead the new drafted players we are going to pick up on the DL.

 

[Fitz4Ever]

Absolutely. We should have never let him leave. Literally every year we have said "he's getting too old"...and then he grades out as what would have been our #1 d Lineman anyway.

We let Calais leave because he thought he was overpaid...and he might have actually out performed his contract every single year since then.

Hes put up 50+ sacks since he left....as a power DE/DT ....and he would be the Cardinals all time leader in sacks had he stayed. Shoot....he didn't even get to play along side chandler jones in their prime...Calais might have been closer to 130+ sacks had he stayed

We seem to play the contract game, not the talent game.

Secure the talent. Don't be afraid to pay market value to do so.

Maybe you make a mistake, but you aren't sitting with capspace wondering what if.

We need Calais & Darnell lol

 

[Cardinal88]

Can you imagine Calais coaching up the younger guys. Sweat and Baron on the outside with Robinson and Campbell with Collins, Collier, Jones and Nichols. Not too bad!

 

[BACH]

Would love that move. 1 Year contract to CC is to be preferred over overpaying for mid level players for multiple years.

We need Calais & Darnell lol

Jake and Adrian Murrell are looking for a comeback.

 

[Phrazbit]

Never was a fan of Docket. There is tough and their is dirty, he was dirty, never liked the way he handled himself out on the field.
