Wouldn't the Cardinals be "sellers" instead of "buyers"????

Traditionally yes, but I'd argue this roster has holes that they should plug while they have the chance. And the trade deadline is one of them.

Also, all is not lost for us. We're only one game back on the division. As poor we have been the potential is there to turn it around.

The Cards don’t have pending free agents outside of Budda that anyone would want.

Plenty of teams would take JC, you wouldn't get much for him, but they would. Nor do I think the team would move him.

If Williams comes back guys like Beechum have value, he's one of the best backup tackles in the league. Again, not worth much.

I'd trade Jalen, but not worth much.

There's certainly nobody that would get much.

The question is does he have the freedom to spend on a high priced player (Crosby) or is he handcuffed to getting bargain basement players (Williams)?
You’re right.
The Cards have plenty of cap space so Mikey may be nixing everything.

Somehow the cards only have 2 high priced guys are Murray and Baker but act like they’re at the cap limit.

Mikey is BIlly part 2.

With all the posts talking about how much cap we have and don't spend and and that our roster is a bunch of journeymen I would think this would be an astounding YES to getting him ....we won't but I would think everyone would want it lol

He wants to go to a winner and they are likely going to want 3 FRP or something close to that.

Maxx has made some statements recently that indicate he may be on the block.
he said basically, " I want to win. Where ever I end up I am all about winning right now"... or something to that affect.

I dont know about y'all... But with Darius coming back...dropping Darius and Maxx into our front seven makes this an entirely different defense...and makes several of our questionable games upcoming very winnable.

Maxx is 27...likely has about 6 productive years remaining.

would you want him?? why or why not??

what would you give?... Im on record that I would give 2 firsts for Parsons,...but I would not give 2 firsts for Crosby...but I would give a first...maybe as much as a first and a fifth.... but a second and a fourth I like better

Maxx is a bit of an cornholio... but we could use some of that on our defense right now

what do ya think?


I love Maxx and I've been saying his name for years but I can't imagine him finally getting out of Oakland and then coming to Arizona.

He wants to go to a good organization. THe rumor is Detroit is probably the front runner since they're really good and just lost Hutchinson

Argh Las Vegas not Oakland!

I know that there are many reasons why we won't get him, but the most obvious to me is the lack of VG pass rushers. So, when you get one you hold on to him. The two recent big name trades, Adams and Cooper are WR's, and were traded because there are many VG WR's.

With how bad the QBs in this draft are supposed to be I doubt we see much tanking this year. We might only see potential cap casualties get sold.

I'd be amazed if the Raiders move on from Maxx.

Crosby is a cornerstone piece and as others have said, great Edge are hard to find. Maxx would really have to force their hand hard I think for them to move on.
