Apparently he's a good STer, so that's good.

No Banjo?

Oops!

Banjo is back.

Good depth signing. Another in the 30 year old and older club. Does social security offset salary cap?

 

[mjb21aztd]

Not sure who he is lol but good special team's is welcomed if he makes roster

Like moves most kiem making to replace missing pieces

there is something off about people in their 50's making fun of someone who is 30. hilarious.

he is not having fun he just saying we are signing several players over 30
Is good to have a mix of young and veterans players but I do think doesn't help having one of the oldest team in the nfl, certainly missed draft picks and lower cap salary are the reason they are forced to sign older players

 

[Cardinal]

Good signing, he’s a pretty decent player.

It’s all relative. 30 years old in the nfl is the equivalent of 50 years old in most industries. You’re the wizened vet. Not yet outta your prime, but not the hotshot young guy with unlimited energy and upside.

 

[Hoodhero]

He is 29. Turns 30 in May if that makes a difference

 

[BigRedRage]

hopefully he is still good on ST in his 30s.

what i wouldnt give to be 29 again....

 

[Mainstreet]

It's probably a solid signing but I'm waiting for the cornerbacks.

 

[cardncubfan]

He's a decent experienced safety that also plays special teams. What more do you want? This is a good signing.

 

[AZCardsWin]

As we saw in our last 2 games of the season, this team lacked toughness on defense and leadership in the locker room. This signing, like the other ones made this off season, brings both of those qualities.

Here in Nashville it's Gee tar

 

[TruColor]

No Banjo?

And just like that:

Love this signing.

Anyone remember how bad the safety play was when both Baker and Jalen Thompson went down?

With limited draft picks, the Cardinals can't afford to draft a mid round safety for the depth. Williams has playing experience AND plays special teams.

30 is the new 24
