Well now, we finally have some news besides who will the starting Quarterback be? Shortly before I decided to post this thing, the Cardinals traded 6th round draft pick Jorrick Calvin to the Eagles for fullback Charles Scott (also a 5th round pick) after the ACL injury to Nehemiah Broughton. Best of luck to Calvin with the Eagles. We also have some roster cuts...

Cards quarterbacks both don't look totally awful - CBSSports.com
Before Saturday, the Cardinals didn’t have a great option at starting quarterback. Matt Leinart seemingly had lost his job – or had fallen far enough to make him even with backup Derek Anderson – and Anderson hadn’t been overly impressive in trying to take Leinart’s job from him.

Arizona Cardinals QB Derek Anderson Should Buy Lottery Tickets | Bleacher Report
Arizona Cardinals QB Derek Anderson's NFL career imay be summed up best by the late Dean Martin with one simple question: "How lucky can one guy be?" His stats resemble that of a journeyman backup QB, with career totals of 46 TDs to 45 interceptions, 21 fumbles (8 lost), a pedestrian 52.9 percent completion rate, only 7,093 yards, and a woeful QB rating of 69.7. Yet somehow, he appears poised to begin the 2010 season as the starting QB for the Arizona Cardinals.
Arizona Cardinals confident in Matt Leinart at training camp - Jim Trotter - SI.com
"QB Matt Leinart is in no danger of losing the starting job to newcomer Derek Anderson. There has been a lot of handwringing among Cardinals fans about how Leinart will fare following the retirement of Kurt Warner, but the 2006 first-round pick has outperformed Anderson and will have to fall on his face to be pulled from the lineup. That's not going to happen. Coaches and teammates say Leinart had a good offseason and has picked up where he left off."
Oh how things change.... (Yes I know this is almost a month old, just interesting to look back at it, then look at what is going on now).
