But they also could still keep him for cheap. Decent chance he’ll be in our long-term plans. Za’Darius, at age 32, clearly will not be. If Keim was still the GM, I bet he would have absolutely made this move.


I don’t mind Monti staying true to his under 30 rule, especially when it comes to EDGE players. Imagine if we would have traded draft capital for Matt Judon? There would have been initial excitement only to see he’s completely washed.
Yeah. This dude is a replacement for/successor to Gardeck. We hopefully won't be eligible for any comp picks next year, but this guy can absolutely be had on a Collins-style extension right now and provide good competition for Beej next year and a solid complement to the prospect we draft in the first or second round next year.

I would rather have the 26 year old who has showed at least some big potential over the 32 year old whose best days are most likely behind him. We did the latter a lot with the last regime & suffered from it.

Yeah. The Lions are just in a different place than we are. If they get two years from Smith they're gonna be happy. I dunno about "some big potential" really, but I get where you're going.

Smith is too young for Keim. Steve would trade for him, if he were 36+.

FWIW, I can't stand the term "flashed". This is the NFL, every one has flashed. Can you impact the game? That's the question. I'm hoping a change of scenery and a chance to shine with us turns the light on for this dude.

Nice, this post "flashed" for me!

Why? Glad you get your giggles in having a crap owner.

Bidwill has proven like his father that he's not a good owner. He SHOULD sell the team, but he's hit the lottery and gets to lord over something he doesn't deserve while not even trying to compete. Hilarious stuff.
The family has owned the team since 1933. It would be like getting the Duttons to sell the Yellowstone Ranch. It's their family identity.

Their continued ownership is a curse to all of us Cardinals fans.

I doubt Mikey really cares about what the "little people" think. But maybe continually getting his face kicked in on social media and in the press will make him change some.

And he still from time to time has to go face his fellow owners, and it's not like he has the past success to have earned their respect. The respect of his peers. So maybe he'll straighten up.

But when I read what I just wrote it sounds mostly like wishful thinking.

I just want him to stay the F away from Monti. I don't want all of Mikey's negative character traits contaminating our GM, who I really think is giving it everything he's got.

We have 31 other teams to choose from.

But dammit most of us can't change Ron. I love the Cardinals with all my heart and no matter how much they beat on me, nothing in the universe will ever, ever, ever change that.

It's just really sad and effing disgusting. I feel sorry for myself. lol..
