You have like four viable edge guys, and we added JJ Watt on the interior. We came into the off-season with a handful of needs, specifically corner, center, edge, IDL, running back, and tight end. We signed Malcolm Butler at corner, who has outplayed Patrick Peterson the past couple of seasons. We added one of the best centers in the league to replace possibly the worst starting center in the league. We retained Markus Golden and Dennis Gardeck to take care of edge. We added a future HOFer on the IDL and the rest of the guys should be returning to health. And at running back, we got James Conner to be our change of pace back and add a little bit more of a power element. Keim just gave himself lots of flexibility for the draft, literally adding either all-pros or pro-bowlers at every spot except for edge and TE. And at edge, we have an All-Pro returning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humble_Beast Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 team looks good on paper, maybe add a guard or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, he's been a big slot, but we've also literally had him playing in-line. But yeah, Fitz has been inside to capitalize on his size while still being able to succeed with his decreased explosion due to the more favorable matchups that can be had there. So I honestly see Green on the perimeter as a different type of player. Will AJ Green be AS reliable as Larry Fitzgerald? No. But maybe he can be 2019 Fitzgerald level. Make some big plays. Otherwise just be a steady receiver who can capitalize when teams are keyed in elsewhere. Should also allow Christian Kirk to play more in the slot, which is good, because he's much more effective when he's lined up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will see what happens. 95% of the time when a team loads up in FA during the offseason their fans are left disappointed with the results that following season. Always just seems to work that way for whatever reason sans a very few exceptions. Like I said though I’d like to see the cardinals come out of the NFC so hopefully you’re one of the teams it works for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReadyToThump Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I would be happy to see the Cardinals win the NFCW this year... I think they have a solid shot at it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But more than likely I’d bet he does short yardage situations, and some other spot usage with maybe 5-10 touches a game. We’re pretty invested in giving Chase Edmonds a legit shot at being a lead back this year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
