Way too much Kyler Murray crap. I was psyched when Kliff the King was hired. Now it has been buzz kill. How about you? 5 weeks to go before draft and I am in a dead period. Damn it to hell. Nothing would make me happier than if every bandwagon pundit gets disappointed on Draft Day.

"With the 1st pick in the 2019 NFL draft the Arizona Cardinals....

Select ..............

Oops... the Arizona Cardinals trade their #1 draft choice to ............

This draft is definitely one of the most polarizing drafts in a while.Bosa has been the top raied player for months and then Media hype machine Murray declares and suddenly because a comment 5 -6 months ago every dimwitted talking head does the Murray slobber and drool while saying the Cards will certainly draft him.

Sorry Murray haters. I think the Draft will be one of our greatest. We have to trade back in the second and Rosen has to give the Cardinals something, like a couple of decent picks when we trade him. Worst case, Murray, like Rosen, is terrible, and next year we'll have a choice between the Alabama, Clemson and Oregon QB's. The Draft is great.

Draft Murray with #1, trade Rosen for a mid or late 1st (Redskins, Dolphins, Patriots) to get Murray another legit weapon, be it one of the Iowa TEs or a legit outside WR with size. With pick #33 get Murray some protection. KK's Air Raid offense should at least be league average, which would be a huge jump from the dead last offense we've had last year.

I think our defense has all the tools to be a top 10 unit again. Moving back to a 3-4 man scheme, finally with a legit playmaking ILB, elite pass rusher and elite CB, has all it takes to be a top 10 unit again.

Everyone saying we trade Rosen--so we will get what a 2019 2nd round pick for in reality a 2018 1st, 3rd & 5th as well as pretty much give away $8 million...that would be the worst deal in ages, that alone should seal Keim's fate.

Sorry Murray fanboys but drafting Murray will be the biggest mistake since Kelly Stouffer or NKemdiche.

I’m having a difficult time getting engaged for this draft as well. But I don’t attribute it to Murray talk (I can believe you guys let that have such a great impact on you).

I think it’s becasue last years debacle left me just cold on the team. And even worse, left me with no faith in the decision makers. So if I lack confidence in the decision makers why would I get excited about the decisions they’re about to make? I expect a slew of blown picks.

Agree.The foolish view that Cards should give up on Rosen after 1 season and select T-rex-arms Murray is absurb.

I see your point and hope SK doesn`t try and overthink things and try to be smartest guy in the room.It scares the hell out of me that SK could consider taking a risky chance on Murray instead of taking the safer pick in Bosa or maybe Q.Williams.Taking the flashy pick isn`t alweays the best one.i say who is likely to be the less risky pick....to me that's Bosa or Q.Williams.I don`t want to see the Cards QB shopping again next draft in the 1st rd if they draft Murray and he fails.

I thought it was going to be boring, because it was just going to be Bosa and done. I thought the Kyler Murray talk was just talk. But after watching film of Murray last year, and Rosen at UCLA in 2017, I am actually excited for the draft to see what happens.

Clemson’s QB can’t declare until 2021.

Here's a thought: If after last season, Rosen is still worth a mid-first... keep him!

And, the Redskins / Dolphins enquired as to his availability and were told he's not.

So, we either select an "elite" defensive piece at one or trade down to Oakland, for example, and select the best "D' player on the board. Pick up a weapon on offence at #24 or #27 and add to the belly of this team in the first 120 picks.

No risky no biscuit
A bosa addition won't change much our season
Instead if Murray works out would give us a bright future

O sure because short Qbs are the normal thing in the NFL .After all the league is overflowing with 5`10 QBs .Much rather have a less risky solid Pro-Bowl type DE-LB instead of risking my pick on a short,small,running QB.Drafting Murray is asking for a 3-13 season and him getting crunched and Cards looking for a grown up QB need draft.

I very much disagree with that statement.


Risky Biscuit also produced to .500 seasons in a row, to be fair. :D

and if Murray doesn't work out, it gives us no future.

:yeahthat:

From small school prospects, with the players being undersized.

It is not like this team didn't have opportunity that last three years to better this team. They just dropped the ball.
