Lotsa rumors should happen next week at the Combine. Some may even be factual.

Stupid that I am very interested in what defensive FAs the Cardinals target.

I think it is our biggest chance for instant success next year. I don't think it is stupid at all.

I think he means it’s stupid to get hopes up for impact players in FA because he doesn’t believe we’ll get them or even consider them.

Um. No thank you!

I'm not spending $11M per year on an Off-Ball LB! The Cardinals have way bigger needs!

Stupid is as stupid does.

The ability to Franchise Tag a player officially opened today:

2024 NFL franchise tag primer: Candidates to watch while window is open

Teams have until March 5th to tag players. Obviously who does and doesn't get tagged will affect who the Cardinals realistically can go after via Free Agency.

I have never done multi quote so let's see if this works. It is a bit of both. I am excited to see what players they target because I am curious if we see a scheme adjustment. I don't really expect us to land many so I am more interested in the interest than who we actually sign but hopefully we can do both.

Oh. Chris Simms who thought Clayton Tune would be the Next Brock Purdy. Maybe don’t listen to a guy hunting clicks?

You have to click the "Insert Quotes" button after selecting multiple quotes. The button shows up next to the "Attach files" button.

People always do this but then don't mention that they have to carry Hump's full cap charge and the relief doesn't come until June 1. What's the point then?

I think it's very likely that the Cards bring Hump's salary down to the minimum/$3 million (would save $12 million on the 2024 cap immediately), let him rehab with the team, and bring him in to see what happens in 2025. The cap impact is exactly the same.

I think they could designate him as a post June 1st cut and get instant relief. I believe that you can do that with up to 2 players.

Nope they still have to carry the salary till June. My bad

IIRC they can only designate two players as June 1 cuts, which was part of the explanation for why we carried Hopkins through the draft. We'd already named Watt and Hudson.

A bit of sanity to counter what I believed to be a disturbing narrative floating around here that Beachum is good enough to be our opening day starter at either Tackle spot.
