100% agree with everything you said except the last sentence. Unless, of course, they’ve seen enough of Tune & don’t think much of him. Instead, I think they’ll bring in a more experienced backup QB in free agency. If Murray were to get injured, even if just for a few games, they’ll need something more than Tune. The Cardinals FO and coaching staff won’t be nearly as tolerant of losing next year as they were this season.
You are exactly right. MHJ would step right in. Just about any D lineman would step right in. A guard could step right in as would a top edge rusher.
And what if this staff has decided Kyler is not the guy?
Then he’s no different than Keim.
Seems extreme considering where you were nine months ago on this question. If Monti drafts a backup QB in the first two days, you'd have to have some concerns.
Where was I nine months ago on this question?
Good point. It appears many have established as fact management is good with KM for next year. We really have no idea.
I was mistaken. I thought you were a tank for Caleb guy until recently.
This staff came here with a POTENTIAL franchise Qb who wasn’t going to be available until November.
A decent backup qb is going to cost some money and cap space. Without knowing the results of our off season acquisitions it’s hard to think who might fit that could carry the load should Murray flop or get injured especially where we are at right now.
There is Guy on IR "cant remember his name" that impressed the coaches liked I thought
we will see.
When Murray had talent around him, he DID flourish. It was only after Hop missed the entire 2nd half of 2021 AND the OL was decimated with injuries at the same time, did the offense drop. And that also coincided with the defense becoming a sieve. And 2022 was pretty much the same thing with Hop out the first 6 games, followed immediately with Brown out 5 games, and then Murray going down with the ACL. But, there’s absolutely zero doubt in my mind that Murray will flourish if the WR room adds talent, and the OL continues to improve.
Disagree. I don't believe taking a QB at the top of round 1 makes Monti a narcissist or a drunk. Not being those two things instantly makes him different than Keim.
I very, very much hope Monti doesn't go all Keim by trading down and drafting a bunch of Kyzir White's. That's a good way to set the franchise back a couple more years. Yes, you need these types of players on the team. You get them cheap in FA and in the middle to late rounds of the draft. You use your top picks for top talent. You want to, what, wait a few years before we go after top talent? Good news for you, then: We'll still be drafting high enough to do so 2-3 years down the road!
Probably Prater too, but otherwise you nailed this.
Wrong! They are ALL Consistent players. Consistently good or consistently bad!
LOL!
I hope you are right. I have my doubts.
