Line troubles
I'm very glad they matched the offer to keep Reggie Wells. This was a good move and something the old Cardinals would have never done. Reggie was a 6th round pick from the McGuiness era, and it's not like you were going to find another 6th rounder like him come in and produce.
Now - go out and sing Larry Allen from the Cowboys. He is a 10 time pro-bowler, he is 34 and you could get him relatively cheap. A 2-year deal worth about $6m would be right. He would add instant credibility to your line and show the fans / team that you are serious.
Rod Graves has said they have little interest, they have invested a lot with Milford Brown and Reggie Wells, they are confident of their line's ability. It doesn't matter - sign Allen for what he adds, then you have good depth as well!
So far I give the Cardinals off season a "c" even with the Edge signing!
