That's the perfect excuse to bulldoze a QB, I hate the mentality of a lot of players on our team. We need some fresh blood that wants to kill the other team type of mentality.

We missed our shot to get fair value and have to live with it. I still don’t like the idea of selling low though.

not only blocked by a QB, but literally runs himself completely out of the play first and THEN gets blocked by the QB.

Meaning we’d have to pay the remainder of Aghlor’s last year to get the pick... I would’ve done that in hindsight.

Ding ding ding!!! A total COWARD move by him!
But hey, we’re gonna get his “10 best games” right? Lol
Somebody in that locker room needs to call his sorry ass out...publicly!!! Nobody will though & that’s part of the problem. Mitch was dead freaking on, #21 is/has been coddled & babied by the coaches, GM & teammates for several years now. Its time the team embarrasses him publicly just like Charles Woodson did weeks ago against San Fran.
PP can’t follow a number one. Maybe a 3/4...but not even close to a number 1

I say trade PP and David Johnson for picks ASAP...

I don't necessarily disagree with the notion of trading them both, if the plan is to try and rebuild and compete in 2-3 years.

You realize we would have to include picks to trade DJ? Like DJ and a 2nd rounder for a 7th type of trade. It would be Tom Gugliotta v2.
This defense is soft. No mean streak at all. I thought Suggs was suppose to be that spark of toughness we need. It’s the exact opposite because they see him mailing it in as well. A few Jack Lambert’s or Doblers is what this team needs

To be fair, those type of players aren't really allowed in today's NFL anymore.

Just gotta let it go...I mean I guess you can hold onto it, but it's just going to make you grumpy. I think their are some around here, though, that still get mad that Joe Namath signed with the AFL.

IMO, regardless of man or zone, he's playing softer coverage because of the young safeties...and not being able to rely on help, if he's more aggressive.
And every single DB seems to be confused on a regular basis.

There is probably some shred of truth in this. He though, as the perennial pro-bowler shouldn't really be 'confused' as often as he has.

I get that, but when one guy is way off it can cause the others to look around and second guess where they are supposed to be.

DJ still can play a part in the offensive effort. He was the only one receiving touchdowns before his injury. Keep him in play and also I think we’ve missed the boat on getting a first for PP and I would rather have him then a 2nd rounder, he’s just going through a tough time at the moment. Next year will be the real test to see if he can regain form
I’m not saying they step on or kick someone, but have a mean streak like them, no one fears anyone on this defense in regards to physical toughness. The one thing I remember about the Seahawks defense in their prime was that when a team played them the overall toll it took out of them physically was still there going into their next game. That’s the kind of tough physical defense I want. When someone plays our D, not only do they know it they FEEL it.

Cardinals would be OUTTA THEIR MIND to pay him top 5 CB money at this point.
Since his PED's (now he's off em) his game has fallen faster than a quarter thrown over the Empire State Building
They'd be wise to see how he does the rest of the season before offering him anything.
The problem is if he finds his game again like John Brown or Anquan Boldin did after leaving ....thus becoming All-Pro status again.
If you can get a 1 for him - take it
If you can get a 2 for him - no
If you can get a 2 and a 3 - yes
that'd be it...nothing lower
I would not would not would NOT pay him....even if he sits out training camp.
Teams should NEVER trust a player who used PED's and got caught.

Spot on. He's had too many games now to prove it. He's sucked badly. At times I think he could be tanking to get traded, but honestly............I think he has just lost a step and a half as you said. Maybe he's been on PEDs for several yrs now & we just didn't know it? Now that he can't take them any longer he looks like a shell of the CB he once was.

Trade Peterson while we can still get a little something out of him. He doesn't have it any longer. His play this season has shown this. Get something out of his reputation while we still can. He's supposed to be our best CB, why pay him top CB money when he isn't making plays? I'd rather have a draft pick for him at this point considering what we're getting right now. He's lost a step. A blind man can see that.

I think he's just lost a step. The communication thing is all on VJ. The whole back half of our defense looks totally lost. When teams run crossing routes against us, they look even more lost, have absolutely no idea who to cover. If VJ had a clue he could get a little of that fixed.

He can’t help the fact that he’s extremely unintelligent. We knew what he was when we drafted and re-signed him. He’s a man cover guy who hates contact. That’s it. He’s not smart enough or mean enough to ever be anything else.

It's all too obvious that Peterson is doing whatever he can do to play himself out of AZ. As soon as he lands elsewhere, you will see a huge step up in his play. Take it to the bank. That's the new NFL today. Exactly how players will continue to escape from doormat organizations moving forward.

D, it makes perfect sense why some of us are attached to him. He's one of the holdovers from the "golden" years and has provided excitement for us the fans and stability at one half of the corner position for a quite some time. He's a player we as Cards fans can hang our hat on, but that being said, I admit when it's time to say goodbye. Our problems go beyond a second corner now, and scrambling and maneuvering to keep him as a Card makes no sense now. It'd be nice of he could stay, cause I still love the dude, but I gotta be honest as to what the team needs are.
