The Edge issue

[Crimson Warrior]

Gardeck leading the league in sacks I think

That is so crazy but I love it!

And he has the greatest sack dance ever!

you dont get to play against third string LTs every game

but lets face it: the Cards havent always made teams pay for having to get deep into their depth chart

Yeah the guy today was terrible. Even got lucky had a couple of very obvious holds and a hands to the face that weren't called or it would have been worse. Gardeck destroyed him but you don't see LT's that bad very often. ANd when you do, they usually are on our team.

 

[GoldGloveschmidt]

Issue? What issue? We have Dennis freaking Gardeck!

 

[BACH]

Still an issue. Today was against the worst pass-blocking O-Line in the league at the moment

Gardeck might be the best pass rusher vs 3rd string OTs I've ever seen. It seems like all of his sacks come in waves.

 

[oaken1]

you play against the guy who lines up across from you.

anyone think the Bosa Bros get all their sacks against healthy all pro Left Tackles?

sometimes your the hammer and sometimes your the nail... Gardeck got to be the hammer today.

True, but the strip sack he was on Haverstein.

Gardeck is a ST player on a good NFL roster.
That he’s a starter, and people are counting on him for production, is mind boggling.

I like the guy, he’s all effort. He’s just not very good.

this didnt age well ,LOL

Eh, it's still the truth. Gardeck feasted on sub-Gardeck talent is all.

All the same, a feast in our favor. I'll take it anytime, especially against the Rams.

 

[ASUCHRIS]

No. I don't want 30 year olds on 25m. This team isn't in that place.

Who cares if they spent 30M on him this year? You'd rather have the 30M lining Bidwill pockets vs. spending it on a great pass rusher? Insanity.

 

[JCSunsfan]

Adding Darius Robinson in three weeks might help a bit.

 

[QuebecCard]

I see a confusion between cap space, available cash, football operation expenditures, and Bidwill returns on investment.

Well at least he feasted when he should. It would be very concerning if he didn't.

As for the Cardinals Edge issue, I think it is still a major issue. I don't expect to see a ton of pressure on Goff next week.

I don't mean to open a can of worms here, and I am genuinely asking this question. Is Redick an option? I saw some media speculation that he could be obtained with a 4th round pick, and of course you would have to pay him. Is he disruptive in the locker room or something? Or maybe there is just not the room to pay him?

He is an option if the fallout continues with the Jets. Gambo (local reporter here for anyone who doesn't know) said the cards were keeping an eye out for him if he hits the market

Jets say they wont trade him
experts say they certainly wont take less than the third they paid for him because it would make the GM look a fool.
I wouldnt object to making a play for him if he will accept something like 3/70/50

Honestly, I don’t think he fits this culture.

I know this coaching staff is really high on Darius Robinson, and he is a lot cheaper salary wise but he has not performed in a real game yet.

However, it seems to me that it would be easier to get a read on a good edge rusher in training camp that it would be a qb or WR.
