I think it’s more difficult to project with a new coaching staff. As much as we bitched about BA bear the end he was great coach that was over .500 with Drew Stanton his entire time here. If things go wrong with injuries can the coaching staff overcome it?

I’ll be a puss and say 8-8 with a healthy DJ.

I think 8-8 is the ceiling. Anywhere from 3 to 8 wins is what I am thinking.

Still too early... I want to see how the final roster and possible free agent additions round out :)
I agree but will give my opinion anyway.

I think many on here are forgetting that DJ and Palmer were out last year. 9-7

Could be a lot higher if either Bradford stays healthy or if Rosen picks up the offense quickly. Also we are all assuming Wilks will be good but the truth is nobody really knows.

Ya know...Matty Ice took the Falcons to the playoffs, as a rookie (what a great game). Maybe Rosen-Ford can do that in AZ. 9-7 and WC.

Actually you don't want to see him for two years since that would mean:

1. Bradford remained healthy
2. Bradford was effective as expected
3. The Cardinals were more than just competitive, they were probably a solid playoff team

I am constantly amazed how the NFL front offices, with all their efforts and hand wringing, don't look to the Aaron Rodgers saga and realize how positive it is for a young QB to sit, watch and learn.

Oddly enough, guess who’s his mentor?

I went with 9-7. Last season we won with defense without some key pieces. I’m hoping this season we can be better offensively, especially at the qb position, and we can stay healthy.

But we don't know how well Rodgers may have played if he started immediately. He may have come out like gangbusters or even had a Peyton Manning type rookie year and then exploded onto the scene.

Having said that I want Bradford to start because I do believe Rosen could use some seasoning and I want to see how the Oline plays without getting Rosen killed.

I didn’t see 16-0 in the poll, but that should be our goal. Way too early to say. I’ll get back to you in December. Lol.

I agree but Rosen will start sooner rather than later. Few teams are blessed with the luxury of having a HOF qb who was stubborn as a mule and refused to retire.

I don't think this draft impacts 2018. As much as I am excited about getting Rosen, I don't want to throw him to the wolves too early.

We have a new coach, new schemes, we will get DJ back, and have a new starting QB. Lot's of variables but we are probably an 8-8 team as it stands today (on paper). That could swing a few games either way by players reaching their potential or injuries happening.

I couldn't be more excited about the Rosen pick and haven't been this excited about a Cardinal draftee since Leinart. Feels eerily similar but I am hopeful it turns out much differently!!
