What is the status of the Arizona Cardinals’ safety room? Budda Baker is one of the league’s best. His partner in crime was Jalen Thompson, who played well but was on the free agent list and found a new home very quickly.

The Arizona Cardinals offseason is going swimmingly, in the sense that they are drowning. After moving on from the head coach, quarterback, but somehow retaining the GM and defensive coordinator, they also seemingly were going to stay with the quarterback who led them to that 1-11 finish after the starter was “lost to injury”. Well, […]
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones always seems focused on his legacy. Certainly, one part is the fact that the ‘Boys won three Super Bowls during the heyday of Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin, and Troy Aikman. But those titles were when? The final one was Super Bowl XXX, played on January 28, 1996, at the conclusion […]

Even though Robert Spillane and Christian Elliss are set to return as the top two options, the New England Patriots are in the process of rebuilding their linebacker room. The depth behind them, after all, has seen some significant turnover this offseason Jack Gibbens, last year’s No. 3, signed with the Cardinals in free agency. […]
The Arizona Cardinals could use another stud at the opposite side of Josh Sweat. What would occur if both sides exploded off the snap?

Gennaro Filice dropped a new 2026 NFL Mock Draft that has the […]
What a good offseason the Arizona Cardinals have had this year. At season’s end, the offensive line was viewed as a dumpster fire. Both guard spots had huge issues, along with OT Kelvin Beachum. So, GM Monti Ossenfort rolled up his sleeves, opened the checkbook, and signed some seasoned veterans. He brought in the best […]

The Arizona Cardinals want to change their defense going into 2026. Lack of good tackling was an issue last year. So was the run defense and pass coverage of tight ends from the linebackers. Last year, Arizona ranked #27 in overall defense and #24 in pass defense. This offseason, the team lost several key players […]

The United Football League (UFL) is in full swing. They have some different rules this year, and that is by design. It tests new ideas of rules, plus the league is a training ground for referees and coaches. One of the new rules is that field goal attempts from 60+ yards becomes four-points instead of […]
The Arizona Cardinals don’t center a new center. Veteran Hjalte Froholdt is doing a great job, and the franchise isn’t looking to replace players who are doing their job. Day 3 guys usually are earmarked for backup spots. Lord knows that the offensive line will go through a lot of bodies each season. And so, […]

NFL draft prospects are examined in more ways than just on the field production. Their health and past issues are poked and prodded all the way until draft day. The last thing an NFL club wants to find out later is that they purchased damaged goods. Usually a top-tier guy will need to begin playing […]
The Arizona Cardinals have a hit-and-miss with the pass rushers. Josh Sweat is the main force, but his bookend is a hodgepodge of guys such as Darius Robinson, Dante Stills, and Jordan Burch. The main production is only coming from one source. Everyone else is just getting a paycheck. The Cardinals need to draft a […]
With the NFL Draft just a little more than two weeks away the heavyweights are starting to give you the info you need. Peter Schrager, now of ESPN and still of NFL Network (I think at least) dropped his first of two mock drafts he does a year. When Schrager talks, everyone should listen. From […]
