we're not the leaders of the darkside for nothing! although, I was firmly a kool-aider for two years... hell, I guaranteed we'd go to the Super Bowl and bought tickets before we even played the Eagles... good thing I did too... it only reinforced the pain needed to bring the darkside back at a moment's notice! and here it is... for everyone's enjoyment.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

that's the second wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee you've broken out. premature. at least wait for the ride to actually start. cripes, this is twice in one thread i've had to police you. don't make me do it again. or you won't get your birthday gift (which just arrived . . . and it is GLORIOUS!).

I know this is not what many of you want to hear---but Greg Toler fits Horton's backside CB role to a tee. He's got speed and he's physical.

So does A.J. Jefferson.

And do not count out Money Mike. Like Horton says, "I want little guys who can hit." Money is the best tackler in the secondary.

The key is whether PP7 can play the frontside---and he has all the attributes it takes...but needs experience.

We will see the Cardinals sign another player---someone like Richard Marshall. Physical and athletic.

Remember too---this is a vastly different defense cover-wise---lots of rolled-up zones to the play side. The need for a lockdown CB is not as great in this defense.

You found the Rod Graves bobblehead doll???!?!

Rod Graves is forever renamed: Rod "Rubber Glove" Graves.

Pucker up and bend over folks... the doctor's in session!

I'm guessing that Peterson is really that good and will start opposite Toler.

Keep an eye on AJ Jefferson, though. He was a tougher (though rawer) version of DRC as an UDFA last year.

If he develops fast enough, he could be a surprise factor.

This is what fans need... hope.

This..

I think the most likely scenerio is Toler will be our Starting CB opposite PP7, and we will sign another CB for depth..

I agree about Toler. I also forgot about A.J. Jefferson, who is very physical.

I'm fine with Toler and PP starting but if the nickle is Money Mike or AJ Jefferson or some UDFA I'm going to be pissed. They created this hole in the secondary, they better fix it.

I have a hard time believing we will run with PP7, Toler and [insert guy here] as our CB depth, especially with Horton being a secondary minded coach.

We've seen guys already snapped up though - like Jonathan Joseph who I was hoping we'd get. We've seen some WRs come into the division as well in Rice, and there are already good young receivers in the division we have to contend with.

So, again, I can't beleive we are stupid enough to roll with PP7, Toler and tagalong in this division.

What do we do?

Joseph hasn't signed anywhere yet. That report was false.

You know, the more I think about this trade involving DRC, I think it was on the burner before the Cardinals selected Patrick Petersen.

IMO, the Cardinals could have traded the #5 pick to the Eagles straight up for Kolb but they they wanted Petersen more than DRC even if it cost them in addition a second round pick to get Kolb.

Eventhough this thread is not about CB. It is still great.

I think it peaked with Ouchie threatening to without birthday gifts to Beefy.

Fantastic.
