NFL Free Agency Open Thread: Cardinals Just Hope to Survive

The NFL's free agency period is officially underway and for the Arizona Cardinals, they're hoping that their two big fish don't land deals too quickly. Karlos Dansby is reportedly in Miami talking to the Dolphins and Antrel Rolle, who has already received a contract offer from the Dolphins, is looking to break the bank with a contract that will pay him about eight million per season (which would make him the highest paid safety in the league). Both Rolle and Dansby are also expected to draw interest from the Giants but no one has ruled out a return to the Cardinals either. Right now the best we can do is sit back and hope that neither player is blown away by a massive contract.
As for the rest of free agency, not concerning the Cardinals, there has already been some movement. The Chargers traded Antonio Cromartie to the Jets for a third round pick in 2011 and they also cut veteran nose tackle Jamal Williams. Williams will certainly be a target for any 3-4 defense looking for a traditional space eating nose tackle. The Lions have been awfully busing so far, signing Nate Burleson to a five year deal (25 million with 11 million in guarantees), supposedly on the verge of trading for defensive tackle Corey Williams from Cleveland and also making a solid push for former Cardinal and current Titan Kyle Vanden Bosch. The Panthers also made a bold move cutting quarterback Jake Delhomme despite still owing him $12.5 million in guaranteed money.
Use this thread for all free agent chatter and we'll update is periodically with news and/or various rumors.

Sack 'o Sacks?
could Porter be a new demon on the OLB spot in Cardinal-red? We certainly need to get younger at that spot, and while he won’t help that movement he should certainly bring a bit of ‘emotion’ and ‘spirit’ to a DEF that could use it!
Anyone wanna guess what this means......
“I just talked to Antrell Rolle!! And I already know what’s about to happen, man I’m speechless I’m going to Bed. I’m done with twitter BYE!”
That’s from Mr Nine-0 himself last night. Probably not good news for the Cardinals if it’s true.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Agreed
Sign Porter for some experiance and maybe make him into a role model for the young guys. Sign Jake as a back up to mentor Matt. Who knows maybe Jake can be the new Kurt Warner restart a down carrer in Cardinal red.Bring Jamal Williams in to start at nose tackle. Thats not to much to ask is it?
Remember no matter where you go in life...there you are!
so Porter, a guy who in past has assaulted an opponent in a casino and got into a pregame fight with an opposing fullback, is a mentor for young guys? What exactly are we trying to teach Cody Brown and Will Davis?
And what is Jake Delhomme going to teach Matt? How to turn the ball over 21 times in 11 games?
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Agreed
Porter wouldn’t be brought in to be a role model. His role would be to come in as a stop gap until Brown and Davis have learned enough to start playing most of the downs.
Delhomme is not a good choice to backup Leinart at all. I would much rather have a David Carr or Charlie Batch.
Porter would be a stop gap and that's about it
Sounds like the Cardinals are targeting David Carr, which I don’t mind.
What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.

Th post
was mostly about what wouldn’t happen. I should make my sarcasm more identafiable
Remember no matter where you go in life...there you are!
ah, I thought you were being sarcastic that we'd actually make all those moves
but you were in support of them if they did.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
If those moves happend
and they all worked out then ya id support it
Remember no matter where you go in life...there you are!
I like the idea to bring in Porter
but not as a mentor. I quiver at the thought of Jake in AZ

What...
If I hear one more person say “Bring Jake to the Cards, he could be like the new Warner.” I am going to throw up. Do the cards have a fetish with signing old balls? Warner worked out. But he was the only one. Emmitt Smith did nothing, James did next to nothing. Maybe we could bring back Neil Lomax. How about we find a young QB that can give us security for a long time like Manning has with the Colts and Big Ben will do with the Steelers. I am just not into buying used cars.

TE Brandon Manumaleuna just signed a 5 year contract with the Chicago Bears.
Could this mean Greg Olsen is on his way out? We all know how Mike Martz never really utilizes those athletic tight ends, so it would not surprise me to hear of a trade before the draft in late April.
Colts have also resigned ILB Gary Bracket to a 5 year deal.
This means Karlos Dansby is officially the top ILB on the market, if he wasn’t considered so before.
any word on the dollar amounts.....that's be an indicator for Dansby
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Dansby should blow that away....both in total money and in guaranteed cash
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
According to Yahoo Sports....
Rolle, who had 72 tackles last year and four interceptions, reportedly said no to an ofer from the Cards that was worth $32.6 million over six seasons.
…….LINK
That’s a pretty strong offer so I don’t want to hear any bitching and moaning about us being cheap if and when he does leaves. That’s a damn good offer for Rolle.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Yeah
Starting to sound like he just doesn’t want to play for the Cardinals anymore.
What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.
Revenge of the Birds
i'm okay with letting him go
free safety is not a premier position unless we’re talking about a troy palamalu or ed reed. 3/4 of our secondary went to the pro-bowl last year, and our pass defense still sucked. i’m okay with letting rolle go, provided we spend some of that money on a good pass rusher and some linebacker help (larry foote?)
I agree, that is a good offer for the guy
the worst thing that happened was the stupid Pro Bowl with all the bow outs.

Don't be surprised to hear Dunta Robinson is off the market within the next couple hours.
Looking like he is going to sign a contract with Atlanta, meaning the Cards are most likely not in the race for him anymore (I doubt they really went for him, if at all).
true, I don't think we were ever in the market to snag the top CB in the market

I’m sure he’ll wait it out and see what happens. Hopefully a couple safety hungry teams fill their needs elsewhere and Rolle has to come back to us.

According to NFL.com the Cardinals are making a strong push to re-sign Dansby
Meaning all of their focus is on him and not on Rolle.

The Lions inked Vanden Bosch....they're quite the busy body this morning
Not sure either of these signings really improve the team but I’m sure Lions fans appreciate the effort. This is another reason why I’m glad we don’t jump into this frenzy.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
The Bosch signing makes more sense.
He played under Jim Schwartz when he was the defensive coordinator at Tennessee. The Burleson signing was a little puzzling though. I just don’t see him being worth as much as Detroit gave him (25 million with 11 million in guarantees).
Its a good move
He can still bring a solid pass rush at his age. It also brings in a big face to the defense, something the Lions and fans haven’t been used to. Burleson was a good sign IMO. Bryant Johnson just doesn’t cut it as a #2 and Burleson is also a threat with punt returns.
What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.
Revenge of the Birds
Yea, but is he worth how much they gave him?
A 5 year deal at 25 million is a lot for a player that has had injury problems the past 2 seasons and has been inconsistent for most of his career.
I do agree with him being better than Johnson though.
Yeah you're right, that is too much. Didn't look at the contract
What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.

Is he the same player without Big Haynesworth next to him though?
Three sacks last year would suggest he’s not.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Could possibly have Suh or McCoy to line up next to.
If those guys live up to the “safest picks in the draft”, he could return to form.

Dansby coming back
I want Dansby back dont get me wrong. i however dont know if I want him back for the type of money we will have to pay him. If we think about the kind of money its giong to take is it worth giving up on that one player? Lets remember that the last THREE years have been contract years for Dansby and before that he always had a bad rep for not fighting through injuries and being lazy. Did he mature? Who knows. All that money coming his way you have got to think he will sit back on it a little.
I would love to have him back like I said, the amount of money we would have to give makes me concerned.

Ravens targeting Boldin?
According to this link, if the Ravens miss out on Kevin Walter, Boldin will be their priority. With the asking price down to a third round pick, there’s about a 0% chance that Boldin will be a Cardinal by draft time.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Lito Sheppard was cut by the Jets
He’s not great or anything but if we’re looking for a younger CB to add some depth, we could do much worse. He struggled last year but he also has some upside.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
This is what needs to happen.
Sign Lito Sheppard and trade Boldin for Greg Olsen.
Fill the need for a pass rusher and nose tackle in the draft.
Those steps would constitute that our team would be just fine.
Looks like the Bears could seriously trade Olsen
Don’t know how much Cutler will like that.
What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.

why do you say that? Just b/c they signed Manumaleuna?
Mana-whatever is a 300 pound blocking tight end, not a receiving threat. ESPN seems think that he’ll challenge Desmond Clark for playing time. LINK

think about it though.
Olsen is much more of a pass catching tight end than a blocking. We already have that (I know I know Greg Olsen is much better than Patrick plus he would cost more) so we wouldnt want it. In my opinion

You don’t break up with your girl friend unless you’ve got another one on the hook.
Although, if we’re talking again about Schefter’s twitter account, he saying something that Wilson’s agent said. If I was Wilson’s agent, I’d think the same thing considering the team made an offer to Rolle already. Not sure how much to read into it.

I got this from Darren Urban
What does that mean for the Cards? Well, it makes me think the Dolphins are confident they have a shot at Antrel Rolle.

With Dockett and Branch being able to fill in if absolutely necessary.
Thats true. i didnt think about Branch filling in there. I guess we would only need 2

Another good point
But won’t Branch be a DE from now on? He lined up in Dockett’s place several times last year. If he is, that just leaves Watson as the lone DT

true, true
We need to add one NT and Branch can be the emergency backup or even Iwebema (who I think moonlighted in that role during his rookie season).
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
I think Iwebema played DT though in the 4-3 didnt he?
I think he is too small for NT, I could be wrong.
Never do card tricks for the group you play poker with.
I remember right at the beginning of the preseason his rookie year....
he was the emergency NT when Watson wasn’t ready to go. I remember the coaches and even fellow players talking about how strong he was and how he could play there in a pinch. I’ll look it up in a sec.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Found it
The biggest concern heading into this Sunday for the Arizona Cardinals has to be the injury situation, especially at the nose. Gabe Watson is already out, although he did practice for the first time this offseason, yesterday (on a limited basis). Alan Branch hasn’t practiced this week at all and his status for the game isn’t looking good. If he can’t go on Sunday, Bryan Robinson will start and Kenny Iwebema will be the backup.
That was actually the season opener against the Niners.

Ryan Clark
If we dont get rolle back i would love to see ryan clark in a cardinal uniform.
It would be a great pickup.
yea I like Clark as well
He’s a more dependable but less flashy player compared to Rolle.

Jim Sorgi in AZ?
Colts have released the longtime back up to Peyton. Good option at #2?

1st Stallworth - 2nd Bryant - 3rd not Boldin
I made a post awhile back about the dwindling possibility for a Boldin trade to Baltimore to take place. They are apparently pushing hard to land Antonio Bryant. If he signs there that is one less team that would chase Boldins services after signing Stallworth and POTENTIALLY A. Bryant

WOW!
right after I posted this things starting hitting on Boldin. KC, Balt, and NE are all looking like REAL possibilities. New England is surprising to me. Something may happen today and it sounds like its a 2nd we would be getting.

Rolle is taking a physical with the Giants
I don’t care what they say, the deal is as good as done. I hope I eat my words.
What? I didn't break it, I was just testing its durability, and then I placed it in the woods becuase it's made out of wood and I just thought he should be with his family.

At this point the only thing we've heard is a 3rd for Q
But with KC and NE bidding for him, the value could increase to a 2nd. : )

My moneys on NE with all the extra picks they aquired
Remember no matter where you go in life...there you are!
Don't put that negative energy out there!
Plus they have Wes Welker and Randy Moss. They will only be able to use him as a #3 WR, which defeats the whole purpose of trading for him.

Arguably if he's healthy

more of a monster than Q
I think not my friend.

Over the past two seasons
Welker – 234 receptions, 2513 yds
Boldin – 173 receptions, 2062 yds
I’m a die hard cardinals fan too but those are the numbers. Plus Welker stays healthy which is key.

Except he can’t piss an ocean

Ironic how Welker was put on injured reserve before the playoffs
Im not a huge Welker fan. Maybe I just prefer a wide out that doesn’t shy away from contact. Welker hits the ground anytime a defender approaches. I’d rather have somebody fight for an extra yard.

I think Welker is a good receiver
I also think he is a bit of a product of the system. Think cassel

Me niether
I believe he’s a guard but can move around the line. Would add depth to the line.

JJ signed by Denver, again.

Life's too short. Be a fan. Orlando Magic, Arizona Cardinals,Tampa Bay Rays and of course "the U"! What a winning combo.
That's good
He got a raw deal last year because of a lingering knee injury. With Moreno and Buckhalter, JJ could make a nice complement there.
