Julio is going to smoke Marco on the 12th...... Absolutely smoke him.

Sad this happened a week before the season starts. Can't believe it's all on us either.

Weren’t we all looking forward to seeing Brandon Williams a few years ago?
No, we “all” were not.

At least Marco played CB all his life.

Brandon was a RB all his life until he switched to CB his senior year. Keim & Bruce somehow thought was a fine pick in the THIRD round despite being bad that year, too. Easily my least favorite pick in the Keim era.

Pretty sure he was all the buzz all training camp. Right up until he got burned on the game winning TD in the Pats primetime home opener.
brandon williams was a converted player trying to learn CB. This kid is not.

All true, but plenty of people were drinking that kool aid back then.

Byron Murphy/Alford and who? This is the saddest group of Cardinals CB's I can ever remember. That's one ok slot corner and nothing anyone else would have in their top 3.

We're seriously going to rely on Marco Wilson and Robert Alford. That's somewhere beyond pathetic planning.

Yikes I’m usually a glass half-full kinda guy, but this is setting up to be a catastrophe

Murphy, Wilson, and Alford as our top 3 corners is a concern, but more worrisome is our #4 and #5 corners, Tay Gowan and Luc Barcoo. Those two playing will be a disaster. It's a certainty, that the Cardinals add a corner from the roster cuts.

I have some faith in those three corners due to the rest of the team being pretty damn stout. Another vet would be nice, for sure.

This is the hope....that the front seven plays well enough that corner isn't a huge concern.

Marco Wilson is probably under the biggest microscope of any player on defense.

That front 7 and the safeties.

Its not like our pass defense was fantastic. We got SMOKED by backup QBs. So, I'm not that worried right now in comparison.

Really? Have you not watched any of the last 3 seasons?
