Cardinals sign OT Jackson Barton

[kerouac9]

Teams are going to be sooooo mad when they look to sign the last five bodies for their 80-man training camp roster and realize we signed the 25 guys on their list before the draft even happened.

Yeah, everyone saying these signings aren't messing with our cap are quite mistaken. Bit by bit, they're chipping away, and with absolutely zero long-term benefit to the team. SMH

Whenever I hear Barton's name I think of Harris Barton, he was a great lineman for the 9ers, but he's also probably about 60 now.

Probably still better than Jackson

You think these are all top 51? lol

This is catastrophising. We have $20 million+ in cap space before unloading DHop. Only the top 51 count against the cap.

Be mad that we’re signing people happy to just have summer jobs; we could cut them all before the season starts and create less dead cap than Devon Kennard.

Not all of them. Read the tweet a few posts above you, though. I'd like to not have any stupid short-term contracts messing with the cap, thanks much. This is why I think we're going in a crap direction without any talent to carry into the future. "But our entire team will be rebuilt via draft and one ginormous FA binge" is garbage talk.

Not catastrophizing it; it's just not something to be happy about. We have a trash plan where the money we're spending is going to literally no one relevant. This is supposed to be...pleasing?

We’re signing camp bodies in April so that Monti and Gannon can really log off after the draft and take some time away.

During the Seahawks initial rebuild under John Schneider, the Seahawks signed a ton of players constantly churning the roster to find useful players.

I don't see the point in handwringing over minimum signings. Where I have an issue is not finding young talent earlier in free agency.

The latter is the real issue. The former only exacerbates the latter because they're mostly nothing burgers after we laid a FA nothing burger.

You only lay a nothing burger if the original plan was to lay a Whopper.

Honestly, I'm exhausted and beat down by this team right now. Nothing I say will change what they are doing.

The only hope right now is that this draft class is a good one and some of the younger players (Simmons, Collins, Marco Wilson, Rondale Moore (LOL), Trey McBride, Thomas, Sanders, and Smith/Hayes) take a step forward. It could happen, but I've seen how rare it is that a group of players takes a meaningful step forward together.

If the original plan was to help this team in 2024, we have laid a nothing burger thus far. A big fat steaming pile of one.

Man, ALL of this. I agree and reflect ALL of this.
