Swearinger is an average at best player on a below average roster. He has a place on the team but is no where near one of the best players on the team.

agreed. and if he is one of the best players on this team, we are in for even more trouble than I previously believed!

Thats crazy....we know the secondary needs to function as a unit to be successful while PP is out. So if hes playing good and one of our best on D we are in trouble? More than you previously believed? Gotta love that negativity before we thrash the lions. And for the record DJ when focused is a damn good player and im happy to still have him.

Some of you really think a team would sign a cut Cardinal to get the playbook. I’d be surprised to find any team on this year’s schedule thinks they need an edge to beat AZ.

Good one Harry.

I don't think other teams have any fear, anxiety, concerns, etc, at all of playing us.

Is this a fans forum for the Cards? Cause im starting to feel like im on a opposing teams forum. The negativity and absolute dumping on this team is kinda sad. I for one am excited for the season and think we will have a good year.

Nowhere did I say the above, nor intimate it. If for some reason he's able to play better than he ever has before and helps the secondary, great! But that's just not who the guy is or has ever been. Bottom line, he's a journeyman safety, so yes, if a journeyman safety plays like a journeyman safety and that kind of level of talent/play ends up putting him amongst the best five players on the entire team, you bet your ass this season is going to be worse than I feared.

it's not negative to say if a journeyman safety is one of our top 5 players we're in trouble. that's called realism, dude.

And for the record DJ when focused is a damn good player and im happy to still have him.

dreaming's free!

stoked for the season regardless, but the overrating of our run of the mill players continually makes me chuckle, as do the people who decide to attack other fans for not daring to be realistic about our chances.

Feeble argument IMO! The Patriots have 52 run of the mill players plus #12, yet they’ve won 6 SB rings. The facts are Swearinger is an above average starting safety and his grades / career stats since his first AZ stop prove that out. We need more players like DJ; not less.

Journey man safety?

If you think this than you haven't followed Swearinger. He was really good here and in Washington.

 

[Krangodnzr]

Swearinger was PFFs top rated Strong Safety @cheesebeef.

Calling him a journeyman is an awful, ignorant take.

 

[Krangodnzr]

The Darksiders just like to be negative.

A 90 rating from PFF would have made him the best player pretty much on the Cardinals last year.

 

[Lagerfilled]

Let’s play a game!!! Rank the key starters on both sides of the ball for the Cardinals one through five. I’ll go first!

Offense:
1 - David Johnson
2 - Fitz
3 - K1
4 - Kirk
5 - Marcus Gilbert or Hump

Defense:
1 - P2
2 - Jones
3 - Suggs
4 - Hicks
5 - Swearinger or Peters

Who do you got???

Nobody attacked you. Go Cards

 

[sdscard4]

Just dumbfounded hardcore fans with 1000+ posts are totally killing us. Last year we said thank god for DJ to be back now hes a journeyman whos playing good means we suck.

1) Murray
2) Kirk
3) Gilbert
4) DJ
5) K Johnson

I didn’t even rank Fitz because he’s going to be as solid as the last 4-5 years in this offense

1) Sackman Jones
2) Hicks
3) Budda
4) Zach Allen
5) PP

I like the names u listed
Its more about foreseeing cause some of them haven't played a regular season game yet

I think Fitz this season won't play the same snaps as before
50% is perfect to use him in the best way possible

 

[juza76]

I think keesean will be the first and main target at the end of the season

Kirk has some limitations and I see him as a third receiver

Fitz the fourth

Kirk will be a number one....guy is amazing.

Curious find me another GM that picked a David Johnson Tyrann and John Brown.

And Mason Cole who almost won the starting C spot and Zach Allen who’s looked great so far in pre season.

No one bats .1000 and like usual you guys talk just to talk

Keim has either cut or traded away three of his six first-round picks (excludes Kyler). None have gotten a second contract with the team.

Keim is hitting under the Mendoza line in the first round.

 

[BACH]

He got cut after talking trash about the coaching staffs gameplan in washington.

I’m aware.

But the statement was that he rubbed the Cardinals’ coaching staff the wrong way.

5 teams, 5 years = journeyman in every definition of the word.

but hey, lob insults all you want. that seems to be your game with anyone who dares disagrees with you.

Look... I hope I'm wrong about him for the Cardinals sake, but I really hope I'm wrong about him, because if I'm right, I fear you'll completely disappear like you did the week after Murray's atrocious pre-season performance where you were too much of a coward to face everyone who you'd been destroying all off-season for daring to think he's not already headed to the HOF.

I mean, Krang... if you're going to continue to dish out insults at people, at least promise me you'll be man enough this season not to disappear if all of chest-puffing takes don't come to pass.

Just dumbfounded hardcore fans with 1000+ posts are totally killing us. Last year we said thank god for DJ to be back now hes a journeyman whos playing good means we suck.

literally no one is saying this. seriously... you think he's a good player. I think he's a journeyman. in no way shape or form did I say him playing well means we suck, but keep projecting stupid arguments into the discussion because you

 

[Cheesebeef]

The Darksiders just like to be negative.

and internet bullies like you just like to lob insults.

kudos.

but do me a favor, please don't be the stereotypical bully if the realists end up being right. it's a bad look when someone can repeatedly dish out insults but can't take it when they're proven wrong.
