Just an FYI, and I’ve been around a long time, I don’t recall the Cardinals ever going through a legit rebuild. Personally, I’m happy to finally see it happen.

Obviously you're going to redefine what "rebuild" means, but the shift from Whis to Arians was pretty profound:

That's 13 of 24 starting roles turned over. We might seen even more.

Man, what an exercise in Guy Remembering this was.

Does anyone have a link to anyone saying that Anderson isn't in the same class as Bosa?

I'm not expert but in my opinion he's as good. Bosa's injury history aside he played in the Big10 vs Anderson in the SEC. The quality of tackles is much higher in the SEC in my opinion.

In 3 years played Bosa had 17.5 sacks, and 29 TFL's in 29 games.

In 3 years played Will Anderson has 34.5 sacks and 58.5 TFL's in 41 games

Anderson has twice the sacks and twice the TFL's in only 40% more games in a better division.
I’m ouchie and I endorse this Britcard post.

Look at his tape. He doesn't have nearly the bend of either, nor is he explosive.

Google McShay and Kiper talking about this draft.

You say this like Bosas have the bend of Von Miller.

Anderson’s bend isn’t rare, but neither was/is the Bosas. They dominate with phenomenal technique, hand usage, & very good athleticism.

lmao I can already see Krang saying “Will Anderson isn’t even that good” if we were to pass on him.

I don't agree with this at all.

FMcShay and Kiper are wrong more than right. The opinion of a couple of guys is nothing.

Bosa and Anderson have very different styles. Bosa has never been a bend guy. He's all power and technique. He has elite hands that stop tackle getting a hold and an array of moves to win. He's not going to win with speed and bend round the edge so much.

Anderson is in the same class coming out. Probably the best prospect since Bosa.

Are new Uni's on the way?

Fanatics custom any name jerseys are normally $170. Cards (and I think only Cards from what I can see) are reduced to $130. In the UK they are down to £45 (about $55). Again the only ones reduced to this price.

I've checked random other teams and all seem to be regular price except the Cards.

That's a good sign that they may be coming.

There have been hints for the past couple of seasons that new uniforms were in the works. This would be a perfect time to do a reset on the unis.

Is it though? With the dregs of a roster they’re gonna be putting on the field is raising your ticket prices an average of 25% and then wanting your fan base to go out and spend a bunch of money on new digs the best course of action?
