According to Graves: "We've been interested in Kolb since he was available in the draft."

I love that comment from graves.

Paraphrasing
You can look historically at trades for quarterbacks but the market dictates what you have to give up and the bottom line is that we feel like we can win with this guy so we just went and got him.

Think what you want about the trade, but when have you ever heard that from the Cardinals?

Thats why we drafted branch, we wanted to fool andy into mentoring him.

Branch was supposed to be a stud. I was excited about the pick at the time. It's like they say, you never know in this league. :(

Like Reid is going to say "Psst, Ken, Kolb sucks"

Rod Graves looks like a character from a Muppets movie

Whoa whoa whoa... WTH happened?? :confused:

They asked if we were gonna go after a CB and Whiz replied:

"I think we drafted one."

I thought it was kinda funny. Overblown if you ask me.

Someone asked him if the Cards would look at CBs to replace DRC. He said "I thought we drafted one?" in a nice and cocky way. He also said we have a lot of young guys that will have the opportunity to step up this year.

Awesome.

The Whis: "He'll be able to pick up a good deal of our system relatively quickly."

:lol:

He didn't laugh. Nor did I. But, I realize I may be jaded with Whiz. He comes across a bit too cocky for me.

That's fine. I dont get that vibe from him. I think sometimes the questions are so stupid from the media and they know very well that the coach isn't gonna answer them, they just wanna ask. Sometimes ******* questions deserve smartass answers.

Just my opinion.

not a surprise that they said they will not be going after a CB...

but I would be surprised if they didn't end up with one...

I wouldnt label him a "cocky" but he does have a swag about him. He is a very proper guy when it comes to the media but there are times when the "Coach" side comes out in him and we see little glimpses of what HEAD COACH Ken Whiz is like behind closed doors.

Typical football coach. He comes off as a hardass many time, but at least he's not a softy like coach Mac was.

I've seen much worse though.

I'm going by what people have posted because I didn't see it but that sounds like a non-answer to the question. He didn't say we were or weren't just that we drafted one and there are young guys that have to step up. Did he say flat out that we weren't going to sign another one?

No he did not outright say we were not going to pick up another CB.
