The Sports Headquarters

We’re three rounds in, and the Cardinals have taken the prospects I ranked at the 9, 28, and 94 slots on my Cardinals specific billboard.  They went two picks higher with Cooper than I had him slotted, but his scheme fit in the Cardinals passing game makes a ton of sense. In the second round [...]

You know what was fun about round 1?  The Cardinals turned the draft on it’s head by taking a guard in the top ten, and breaking decades of tradition to bed. You know what wasn’t fun?  Watching Geno fall, but from everything I’ve seen and read he’ll make a note of this on his way [...]

Over the last two months I have had the honor of working over at arizonaports.com, one of the better sports sites dedicated to all things sports related in Arizona. While working there I have put out a litany of Arizona Cardinals 2013 Draft related work, answering all of the questions you may have about prospects, [...]

The trade is completed; and Carson Palmer and the Arizona Cardinals seem to both be happy with the match. While I am not keen on the idea of Palmer in Cardinal red, the price was cheap, the risk is low, and the reward is… well to be determined. What Carson Palmer brings to Arizona is [...]

“Smart, hard-working passer with an NFL arm. Patient in the pocket, poised under pressure and buys time for receivers. Throws with an over-the-top delivery, accurate and nicely places the pass.

It’s NFL 101, if the old team doesn’t want the player, there’s no need to overpay for that player to get him to come in. Maybe that was the old regime, honestly Rod Graves did no favors to the Cardinals when it comes to roster or cap management, but maybe it’s because they felt the [...]

Devising a plan for the Cardinals in free agency is like walking a tight rope, it’s exciting, but one bad deal can set the team back further in what is quickly becoming the best division in the NFL. You can make it across and amaze people, or you can trip fall and hopefully there is [...]

In a stunning turn of events the Arizona Cardinals have hired a head coach.  I kid, I kid, the Arizona Cardinals have hired Bruce Arians as their ninth head coach since moving to the desert and switching over to the Phoenix Cardinals, before becoming my beloved Arizona Cardinals. Arians wasn’t my first choice to lead [...]

One of the hardest things to discern when looking forward for a team that, as newly minted GM Steve Keim put it, re-tooling, is understanding what the roster and cap numbers look like going forward. Well fear not loyal #Birdgang, as I am here to do my best with what I can to figure out [...]
