Understandable move, though I was rooting for my ASU fellow Matt Haack for the job.

 

[Stout]

And that's what I don't understand. We sign a guy to be our starting center. He becomes our starting center. Case closed.
P.S. The center position is very important.

Uh, so I have to blanket love every signing we make for a starter? Case closed for you, perhaps. No blind faith for me.

The center position is very important. I agree there. I do not like Frodo as our starting center. Therefore, I don't like the signing. You don't agree. Fine and dandy. We can leave it there. Case closed?

 

[Stout]

From what I've seen so far, prepare to be really wrong about Froholdt. Sure it's just preseason but he's looked really good so far against 1st team players. He pretty much dominated Zach Allen.

Sometimes players fall through the cracks while adjusting to the NFL. Look at James Harrison who bounced around the fringes of NFL rosters and then became an NFL hall of fame caliber player. It does happen.

You too, Krang? Now we're comparing him to James Harrison? I'll grant that players fall through the cracks; I'll grant nothing for preseason. As I said ad nauseum, we'll see in the regular season. It would be a huge bonus if he could be even average.

This

So far he looks good and if it works out he's decent to good in the regular season that would be great

I'm with you on Big Mo. He has starting potential, which is more than the Daley types who are at best swing backups.

Ive read "Big Mo" like 6 times in this thread. I can't figure out who that is.

 

[CFLredzoned]

You want to see something funny. In the first video, Fro runs over #27.

Then in the Will Hernandez micd up video, you see #27 looking around "Who hit me?" 1:40 mark

Because of his initials I like to call Paris Johnson Peanut Butter and Jelly since it also looks like he's had a few P&J sandwiches. haha.

Comparing the situation of a guy who bounced around before finding a home.

I'll grant that players fall through the cracks; I'll grant nothing for preseason. As I said ad nauseum, we'll see in the regular season. It would be a huge bonus if he could be even average.

You were pretty vocal though. I think sometimes you just have to admit that other people might have more information than you. Scouts, coaches, and GMs have a lot more info than we do.

 

[Krangodnzr]

Interesting idea.

 

[Proximo]

Interesting idea.

Seems like a no brainer, we have 4 starting caliber OT's. Should turn one of them into value somewhere else that we obviously need. Hopefully a good corner.

Well stout is on this board and the others aren’t. Stout keeps me grounded mostly but when I see something resembling positivity from him about the team or a player I pay attention

You do have to admit it, when they're proven right. We're far from that point. We also went super cheap in the offseason, and an easy argument can be made that we were in cash saving mode. Viewed through that lens, the signing makes a different kind of sense.

him or Beachum i would think

i would keep Josh as the swing guy unless somebody offered something significant. Josh is a UFA next year, and someone might throw some money at him and the Cards get a comp pick

I think this year was about resetting some of the cap money, and bringing in mid level to cheap vets that know the system. Froholdt is intriguing because of his relationship to Petzing and his Patriots pedigree. So far he has looked really good though man. Its specious evidence, but its better than nothing.

Definitely agree with the first sentence here. I don't think anyone can argue the FO was conserving money--not just cap space, but cash. I don't like it because we need to evaluate KM when he comes back from injury, so OL--especially C--is an area I wanted addressed in a solid way. Not in an intriguing, maybe okay, off the developmental heap kind of way.

That said, at this point, I hope all the optimism is bang on target. It would be gravy.

My hope (and I think our hope) is that this scouting actually knows what they are doing.

Some might be in target, while other hope isn't. The Cardinals are actually due some "luck" on a few players.

You can't send this when @Chopper0080 is still at work.

He won't be able to stand up from his desk.

The real question here is have you watched the preseason games? Or just going off what he's done on previous teams?

From what I've seen from him in the preseason games he has been more than serviceable. And if you're not happy with that. It's not like we can sign a available pro bowler from out of no where.

 

[FB94]

Not sure I want to trade him, as someone always goes down and we created a bigger issue not having him on the roster
