Kyle thinks we should beat Miami first, then consider becoming buyers at the trade deadline

[az jam]

Do you seriously think Monti is going to do anything?

No he won't as he is not proactive. IMO although we are mostly negative on former GM Keim, he was proactive and would go after and get an edge rusher at this time if he was still in charge. I'm not saying he is a better GM just that he made moves during the season while MO is reluctant to do anything.

I don't want to hear about how hard MO worked to get a deal for an edge rusher if he fails at it.

I don't care about your hard work I care about your results.

Passive type of gm is what Michael Bidwill was looking for

Nice insult. I guess I struck a nerve.

Wild you’d claim St Brown as anything but the number 1 there… also wild that you would take that as insult rather than a captain obvious statement. I guess I struck a nerve

I better not see Myles Garrett go somewhere for a 5th round pick

You're safe on that score. Would take multiple first rounders or equivalent to get Garrett.

I wouldn't expect anything soon, the trade deadline is next Tuesday. Unless someone is blowing you out of the water with a deal why do a trade already? It's in the seller's interest to let options dwindle and more parties show their interest. Plus there's another game this week which could lead to more injuries and more desperate teams. It's why most trades are done around the deadline.

The Uche trade was really dumb by the Patriots. Low return taken early, they could easily have got better had they waited. Chiefs bent them over.

Some possible recent draft picks that haven't worked out that I reckon might be available.

Myles Murphy - Bengals - Former first round pick is still only getting 40% of snaps and hasn't lived up draft position, is 4th on the depth chart.
Isaiah Foskey - Saints - Last years 2nd round pick is playing 6% of snaps and is 5th on their depth chart.

Both of these would be reclamation projects where you hope a change of scheme suits them.

And you know we are going to hear all of the excuses. "Have to have someone who wants to trade" "Needs to be the right fit" "Compensation demands were just too high"

Not sure we know enough about Monti to make this statement yet. Team wasn’t 4-4 this time last year.

The key is finding a team that wants to trade and has a player that you are interested in that is actually available. Also that player needs to fit the Cardinals system and not cost too much.
