Tempe, AZ – Clarence Curry, a rookie free agent cornerback from Villanova, and Tyrone Sanders, a rookie free agent cornerback from Texas Christian, have both signed one-year contracts with the Cardinals.

The 6–1, 210-pound Curry started all 11 games for the Wildcats as a senior, recording 36 tackles, 10 pass deflections, one interception and one fumble recovery. He was named second team all-Atlantic 10 as a senior.

The 5-10, 173-pound Sanders ranked second on the Horned Frogs in 2003 with 11 pass deflections and finished his season with 24 total tackles. The Dallas resident also earned all-America honors in track during his four-year stay at TCU.

I like Curry's size. He may be able to replace Barrett as the physical CB who can get in your face.

change

Looks like a whole new defense already with depth, health and speed.

I have a feeling we are going to try Curry out as a safety.

As for any of these 2 making the 53 man roster I give them a 1% chance.

As for either of them making the 8 man practice squad I give them a 5% chance.

Who knows - KLASS was a UDFA.

This will give the team depth during camps.

I'd like to see some more experience, but I guess this is better than nuttin.

Curry hAS great size.I claim to know nothing of these players, but some scout saw something that's the only way to get even this far.

My only concern about the 'Nova dude is that, despite playing in the Eagles' back yard (remember how Andy Reid snapped up Westbrook?) and the Eagles losing Troy Vincent (and Bobby Taylor too, right?) Andy didn't bring him in.

Sadly...

...both will probably contribute more to the training camp practices than Starks.

I can't say I won't be surprised with Starks injury history with us.

That would be a novel idea. Barrett never got into anyones face while playing CB.
