Cards Get Edge Rusher Baron Browning From Broncos

[602 Native]

Im hoping this dude has fire and wants to be a starter and get paid.

Show out young man.

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.

10000000% this

 

[Stout]

Oh Monti...

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.

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+.

If he works out we can nickname him the Red Baron.

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.

We have 31 other teams to choose from.

I am hoping for 5-8 sacks for the rest of the season from him.

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.

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..

 

[PACardsFan]

Not sure what people are bitching about?? I’ve been a fan for 60 years & have never been more excited about the future of this franchise. We have a very good QB, we have an up and coming STUD HC, and although it’s early, we have an outstanding young GM. Stay the course. DRAFT & DEVELOP!!!!

Side note: I once found an old county map showing the land my high school is on was once owned by Baron von Stuben. How we were not called the Barons is beyond me!

Wow THE Baron von Stuben? Author of the blue book, and the father of the United States Army as a professional organization.

Browning, while younger, is a UFA this offseason. Say the Cards get some production out of him: the team may still lose him.

Smith is signed through 2025 (at a cheap $1.4mm per year in salary).

This team has a chance to win its division and/or make the playoffs. The 49ers arent going to lose key offensive starters for long stretches of the season every season.

It feels like Monti is so committed to his process (players under 30, keep draft capital) that he is passing on an opportunity.

Cards and Lions at two different trajectories. Not sure it is apple to apple. Monti was never giving up two draft picks.
