    Draft Positioning

    I appreciate this line of thinking but the whole Adrian Peterson/Levi Brown fiasco gives me pause. Another poster brought that up in a different thread and it hit home for me. I would rather take the money we have in free agency and go out and get a new right tackle and hopefully another guard...

    Draft Positioning

    To me this is the problem. I don’t want a right tackle at 5 either and if you can’t trade down what do you do. I’m warming up to the idea of taking Love to replace Connor and then going o line in round 2. The reality might be that the best guys on the board at 5 are defense and with DRob...

    Draft Positioning

    I fully expect we’ll be locked in at 5 at this point barring a miracle. The Raiders will get the quarterback they want so the question is do you pay the ransom to the giants to leapfrog the Jets. I doubt it will be worth it. I also don’t think there will be many teams looking to come up so...

    Pretty sure they will cut Connor for cap savings ($8M) due to the uncertainty of whether he will be 100% but I would totally bring him back at a reduced rate just for his passion and locker room presence.

    That's a great counterpoint. I'm not very familiar with Love so I'll have to look him up but if you think he is in the same vein of Peterson/Robinson I'd be on board because there is no guarantee Connor/Benson can be counted on to contribute next year. I'd feel a lot better about it if we went...

    6 - There are several reasons why they should draft RB Jeremiah Love with their first pick, if they don’t go quarterback. One of them is Bijan Robinson. Given the average shelf life of rb's in this league I don't think it would make sense to do this given the amount of needs this team has right...

    Draft Positioning Week 16

    Well, we didn’t get much help from the results today. We are still sitting at number six. Tennessee beating KC was beneficial, but their strength of schedule is now lower than ours. Going into next week we need Tennessee to beat the Saints and the Raiders to beat the Giants to keep the Giants...

    Draft Positioning Week 16

    You have to try though. The jets could easily wait until 2027 to get their qb thinking that Manning will be available then. I’m sure they’d love to have another Manning in NY. Our roster has enough talent that another top 5 pick will not be likely so if we’re close we have to take the shot.

    Draft Positioning Week 16

    If we end up in the top 5 (and I think we will) you have to at least make a play to go for Mendoza. There is no guarantee we’d be in position to get a top qb in the future without paying a ransom.

    Draft Positioning Week 16

    Here's probably the best case scenario for us This week Jets over NO Next week Raiders over Giants Tenn over NO Final week Cle over Cin *with Mahomes going down could KC just fold up? If so they have games with TN and the Raiders that come into play. If that happens we finish at number 2...

    We are at Vince Tobin level of suck

    Wholeheartedly agree with the Larry Centers comparison. What really gets me these last few weeks is the sheer ineptitude of the defense. There is no one injured on the defensive side of the ball. They were ok last year and we added some talent this year. The only explanation is they just...

    Obvious tank job

    I get it. It won't be easy but its doable. Remember the Broncos ate $80M by releasing Russell Wilson. A few things to look at for cap room: 1. Justin Jones has a cap number of $12M and we would save $8.8M by releasing him outright 2. Budda has a cap number of 19M. Releasing him would create...

    Obvious tank job

    I don’t think this hamstrings the Cards. They currently have $31M in cap space for next year according to OTC. That already includes Kyler. Cutting him pre Jun 1 incurs another $1.4M which still leaves us with $30M. We have 51 players under contract and no free agents I would say are...

    Obvious tank job

    He is tradeable if the Cardinals are willing to take on some of the salary owed to him in 2026. That money is a sunk cost either way so they should absolutely explore that option.

    Under what circumstance would Bidwill sell team

    Let me answer your question with another question. You are the owner of a business. It has a monopoly in its market and zero threat of competition. It is immensely profitable and keeps you fabulously wealthy. It has no pressure to succeed or has any consequences for failure. Are you selling...

    Kyler Officially Done for Season!

    I just listened to a really interesting podcast about this and it’s not as bad as you think. The Cardinals are already committed to paying 30+ million in salary for Kyler next year. That is a sunk cost. The key date is March 5. That is when his 2027 salary will become guaranteed. If he is on...

    2025 Week 12 Snap Counts and the GM who Failed

    This is essentially the same Oline that last year was rated a top ten unit overall and had the Cardinals with the 7th most rushing yards. I think losing Klayton Adams and bringing in a college guy to replace him has had a much bigger impact to this unit than can really be measured. I also...

    Is it time to wonder about Will Johnson’s ability to stay on the field?

    7. I’m guessing they thought he was doing the throat slashing gesture. It’s the only reason why that flag is thrown 10. If we lose out (highly probable) we’ll have a top 5 pick. A lot of the other bad teams play each other so there will be some wins there. Biggest possible wins for us are...

    The official Gannon/Monti/Petzing should be fired thread……

    If you bring him back you’ll also have to give him an extension. No one comes here with a lame duck coach so there is the added issue of tacking on more money when you aren’t sure. If you’re not 100% confident of the direction after year 3 you gotta change. Not sure about monti though.

    The official Gannon/Monti/Petzing should be fired thread……

    I’m with you. It was one thing when they were competitive and you can point to a key player to not go in their way. It’s another thing when you get blown off the field by two division opponents in consecutive weeks and set a team record for penalties. The only problem I see is there’s no point...

    Cardinals at Seahawks game thread 11-9-25

    Do ya’ll realize Darnold only threw 1 pass in the 2nd half which was picked. They basically put a mercy rule on us otherwise it would have easily been a 50 burger

    Cardinals at Cowboys game thread 11-3-25

    I don’t think we’ll be drafting top5 so even if we do get a qb you prob roll with Brissett next year and let the new guy ease in. I only wonder if Brissett has a shelf life ala Dobbs and we may see Kyler again at some point.

    Pretty sure he’ll be “limited” all week and be a game time decision wink wink
