We are interested in Edge James - ESPN.

Are we sure about what Mort's actual words were? It's easy in the heat of battle to think he said "Cards have indicated an interest in..." as opposed to "It would make sense for the Cardinals to be interested in..."

Also - Edgerrin's health? Is he sound? Or is he slightly (or more than slightly) damaged goods?

He's 100%. Didn't he lead the AFC in rushing last year (or durn near it?)

Curtis Martin lead the nfl...but I am sure he was top 5-7...

James DID lead the AFC in rushing with 1548 yards, 4th in the NFL behind Martin, Alexander and Dillon.

I think it's safe to say his knee is okay.

Wouldn't that make him 3rd in the AFC (since Martin and Dillon are AFC too)?

Also I found this on SI's Truth & Rumors:

It's been long speculated that James, a South Florida native, yearns to play for the Dolphins. But last week James said, "Everybody always ties me to (Miami) because I went to school here and I live here. But my main thing is playing football, making sure I've got a good deal in place and then going from there."
-- Indianapolis Star

Sounds to me he's willing to go anywhere as long as he thinks its a good situation for him.

Details, details.

Add 483 yards in receiving and that accounts for 2021 total yards just about half of our entire team last year.

Nice stat...every time (3) he has played in 16 games, he has had 2000yds total offense or more.
