Conner re-signs for 2 years, $19 million

I would think it would be beneficial for Cardinals to have an out in 2nd year without a huge cap hit.

2 years/19M with 10M guaranteed. (edit...this is my guess)

It doesn't really matter IMO. The deal is chump change compared to the cap space we are going to have the next few seasons. Cap space we won't completely use anyhow.

IMO, it's the deal I was hoping they would sign him to. Two years. Some said he would hold out for at least three but it's all about the upfront money with a guy his age.

Excellent. Glad they did it right before this game. Should get the team feeling good about things

He can start next year 2025 and then hopefully flip flop with Benson and be the backup. That should prolong his career and effectiveness.

Well done Big Red & well deserved!!! He’s a leader that’s well needed on & off the field for this team to continue growing

Next up I would extend Budda 2-3 years & trade Jalen before the draft because the rabbit is waiting in line, a better player & going to be an absolute stud

A pittance for a guy who's a productive team leader and sets the tone with his intensity and work effort.

You need a good third safety because of injuries, imo.

If our roster looked different that 9.5 mil might matter more but it doesn’t so nothing to sweat about.

Compared to the Justin Jones, SMB, Bilal Nichols of the world (Cards) this is a great deal

this is good for everyone imo - including conner's mental space with benson getting more playing time - conner is more than a back he's that guy in the locker room mentoring others while keeping them accountable - i hope kyzir is next

Excellent move by Monti for a productive player on the field and an exemplary veteran leader off it.

Budda may not get done until he finds his value in the legal tampering period.

Had to happen.

If I was to guess I'd say something like $12m guaranteed so that if he's tailing off or Benson is ascending they can get out of year 2 without losing much.
