Cardinals Trading for CB Jamar Taylor

[BigRedRage]

Average CB is all we need on that side IMO.

 

[JeffGollin]

Working lede should be:

"Cards move to bolster CB situation."

He's not Patrick Peterson's twin, but he may be a seviceable veteran who adds some potential depth to the position.

(Another way we can look at it is: What would be like in the secondary without at least the presence of someone like Taylor)?

Ok with me. They didn't ignore the need.

 

[Solar7]

At least they're being proactive. I don't feel good or bad about this.

 

[Garthshort]

Two things:
1. Look at what you're getting and not what you're giving up.
2. Will he be one of our best three CB's?

 

[GoldGloveschmidt]

Who?

Better depth than we had I suppose.

Consider me excited if he is capable of being the starter opposite Patrick Peterson. And the price, a 6th round pick in 2020 is reasonable.

According to his draft profile he seems like the kind of CB that Wilks likes... aggressive and physical

 

[cardncubfan]

Hope we sign one between boston and vaccaro cause im not excited about our safety crew

How are they going to sign one of them if they are too cheap?

 

[az jam]

Decent move, didn't give up much.

cause they are still unsigned

Actually I'm not sure it is adequate. He is going to be thrown at constantly, hopefully he can hold up. I know nothing about him, I am hoping for the best.

The fact they made this move suggests what we have did not look to good, which is a problem because you need more than 2 corners.

We have had plenty average guys there, like tramon Williams last year, that always do just fine. You can't have two top tier corners. That's rare unless one is a draft pick

Actually according to PFF, Tramon Williams was above average, and this guy was average, but at least he is several years younger.

He better work. We are lacking depth at almost every position, unless we are almost injury free our chances of competing for a playoff spot is almost nil.

An average player can be above average when next to pp21

I just read he didnt allow a td and completation percentage was about 53
Imo are good stats especially if he made those numbers playing for a bad team

Tramon was above average last year. Given that GB drafted 2 CB's they are hedging their $10n bet on him in 2918/19. What we have is a guy with the tools and experience derived from a host of starts. Can't say with certainty but there is middling to high hope for solid play here.

P.S. Every team has depth problems to a greater or lesser extent; it's the nature of a CAP league .

how?

 

[BigRedRage]

Several have done it already. No one next to pp21 was expected to be above average when they came here but several have parlayed new contacts

how?

Makes you wonder why we didn't sign EJ Gaines when we had a chance????

Edit:

IIRC Gaines was offered 2.5 mil and left. Went to Cleveland and signed for 3.5 mil. Now we are trading a pick to acquire a guy who makes even more money and Gaines is taking his place. We also help out the Browns with cap space.

I think we needed a veteran presence.

 

[notdeadyet]

Giving up a 6th for a guy who would almost surely see the field on D even as a 3rd CB is a good deal.
