Rumor mill
Apparently, the Cardinals have let it be known that they are seeking an offensive tackle, and are are willing to trade. First thoughts of trading might be Bryant Johnson or Marcel Shipp. I say no way on either. Someone will get hurt and we need those guys. But Cardinals are willing to trade as high as a 3rd round pick. It may sound crazy to give up a first day pick for a back-up position, but if it's the right guy, I think it's worth it. I don't know if we can expect much from Oliver Ross, and the team may have the same concerns. Will he be back? I think he'll return much later than thought.
--------
As mentioned earlier, JJ Arrington kind of impressed me Saturday. He returned kicks very well. And he showed toughness on his runs, not backing down. I think that is what it is going to take for him to start being successful.

Leinart will probably play against his former back-up this weekend. The kid that played behind him at USC is the back-up to Tom Brady. I expect extensive playing time for Matt this Saturday.
