Cardinals considering trading James for the #12 pick?

[Shogun]

Those who are eager to jump on trading Edge are the most ungrateful fans I've ever seen. You sicken me.

What should we be grateful for?

It's not ungrateful. Far from it. Edge is still a solid, serviceable, 1,000 yd back, but his time is limited. I think AP could be a lights-out 1500yd back for a long time to come. It's not about feelings; it's business and winning for years to come.

 

[Pariah]

I don't want to trade Edge. But, I do want to draft AP.

 

[Mulli]

Okay, I am grateful to Edge for everything. But as Gretsky said, "We are not winning."

 

[BigDavis75]

Edge for the #12 pick is a no-brainer, but I don't think it is even a possibility. What if we made that trade (hypothetically of course) and drafted Joe Thomas at 5 and Marshawn Lynch at 12 and Timmons/Posluszny at 38. Lynch is a really good back but has had some trouble with the law. Personally I think Lynch/Thomas is as good as AP/Brown but it is really the individual's preference.

If this were a discussion of Buffalo offering its 2nd round pick for Edge -- I might be more interested, as at least that is in the realm of plausibility

It is a no brainer for the cardinals to pull the trigger on that deal. Regaurdless who is there @5. At the number 12 spot there is going to be a damn good football player there. I am thinking Jamal Anderson or Patrick Willis. There is always someone slipping out of the top ten for some reason. I believe it will be Okoye, Willis, and Anderson. All need position for the cardinals, and they are BPA at the number 12 pick.

That said, I'd trade him for the 13th pick in a heartbeat.

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

no no no NO NO NO NO NO NO NO way would I do that deal.

Edge is a horse!!!

someone say's your team is facing Edge...they're scared...

someone say's your team is facing AP....Big freaking deal...

lol, scared of edge? what is this, 2004?

i think a lot of teams will be more frightened to play against AD initially than are scared of edge right now.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

True, it is his ankle, I am thinking of, sorry. The only real knock on him is he cant seem to stay healthy. I think he is a fantastic prospect, but I dont want Shipp starting 8-10 games a year.

he's had two injuries, neither of which is any way shape or form related to one and other, and has still managed to put up some impressive numbers in college, both pre and post injury. dude is a stud. we're gonna pass on eric dickerson part 2, i just know it.

True. AD is the "home run threat." That phrase is unfortunate. AD is more of a threat for long gains, in my opinion.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

We're better off with Brown and Edge, IMO....

Remember Brown, Williams and Benson a few years back? Game changers all of them according to the pundits, but I'd still rather have Edge than any of them.....

if they were all in the same draft peterson would be ranked above each of those guys.

Also true. Facing an RB for the first time can be scary.

 

[Mulli]

Also true. Being an NFL RB can be scary.

fixed

 

[cardsfanmd]

Even if AP isn't there i would do it. Take Thomas or Brown w/ the 5 and take Marshawn Lynch with the 12. What i dont get is why the Bills would do this trade.

 

[Duckjake]

The Cards have only had two rushing attempts go for 20+ yards in the last two years combined, zero last year and 2 in 2005.

The 2003 Cardinals had 5.

Are you saying this because he says that the Cards are going to be bad? The past decade or so, that actually turns out to be an accurate prediction. I'm not sure where this comes from.

He said J.J. Arrington was going to be bad when everyone here (including me) thought that he'd be an 1100 yard guy. He continually insists that the offensive line is under-talented, and that's true, as well. He's said that the Cards needed help at cornerback forever.

When people were calling in last summer saying that the Cards were looking at at least a 9-7 record, he laughed them off the air. Turned out it was the callers who were idiots.

I'm not a big fan of him as a person, and I think that Kemp keeps a lot of callers on that just agree with him, but there's no question that the guy does a good job of balancing national and local stories, gets good national interviews, and has a clear perspective.

He does, however, ave a sickening penchant for overemphasizing baseball. It seems that on the day the Cards signed James he spent more time talking about the Pittsburgh Pirates.

I kid you not. If the Yanks were playing the Bo Sox this week, he'd spend more time on that than the draft.

I agree with that, but it is baseball season, and he doesn't make any case about being more interested in football than baseball, either. But I'm not sure how that makes Kemp an "idiot" or horrible radio. If you don't want to hear 60% baseball discussion, you probably shouldn't tune in.

That's not the case that, I'm making. The case that 'm making is that he will talk about baseball at rather inappropriate moments.

He's prone to talk about how he doesn't like the draft and complains about how watered down the NFL is today. That strikes me as pretty funny, as if the caliber of baseball wasn't similarly lacking today. Hell, I'd rather watch mediocre football than good baseball anyway.

Anyway, I call into Kemp on occassion (one of the Bill's from Phoenix) but if he talks about baseball when I want to here about football then he'll lose me for a week.

Yeah, that's kind of how I am. I'm not going to listen for four hours, but I like him more than Rome or Cowherd or whomever is on 620. I don't really like Gambo and Ash, because I kind of like sports talk on my sports talk station.

i wouldn't give up a 12 or 13 pick for edge at this pt in his career. but that would be a steal for arizona if they can get AD and the 12th.
