Preview of a Coming Attraction

[Harry]

One of the overlooked impacts of Johnson on the secondary is that I expect what I like to call contagious aggressiveness. Everyone expects Johnson to be extremely focused on attacking the ball. They also foresee more errant throws that can be picked off due to an expected improved pass rush. Johnson will likely be quickly effective at knocking down throws and intercepting passes. Melton and Williams are great athletes. With vulnerable passes filling the air I’ll be astonished if those two defenders don’t get more aggressive at intercepting these throws. Melton picked off 8 passes his last 3 seasons in college. Williams already has 3 pro pickoffs. I fully expect this unit to have a banner season. The Cardinals could definitely have a game changing pass defense.

I really liked Melton coming out of college and thought he was a very good 2nd round pick. I did not expect him to be a starter year one however I think he will develop into a very solid #2 CB.

 

[Goldfield]

Very exciting time to be a Card fan imo.

if all goes to plan we'll essentially just be adding the ball hawk that is will johnson to the secondary - only 4 upfront means more in back allowing our safeties to be more opportunistic and less preventative - im looking for dtd to be that sneaky safety this year

Don’t sell Melton short. I think he could be a solid #1.

Agreed.. but w the depth we have why not make it even more exciting and go get a premiere WR2 and G.. we have the cap space and don’t necessarily need more young unproven players

A front 4 that can pressure the QB makes our entire secondary that much better. Sprinkle in some Rallis schemes and I think this revamped side of the ball can take a big leap.
