Arizona Cardinals thread

Originally posted by Phoenix49ers:

On a per-snap basis, Green was one of the least efficient wide receivers in the league last season. He averaged just 1.06 yards per route run, which ranked 92nd out of 103 qualifying wide receivers. Green caught 47 balls for 523 yards and averaged a career-low 11.1 yards per reception. He caught just 45.2 percent of his targets, which ranked last out of 103 qualifying wide receivers. This was after he played just nine total games from 2018-19.

Maybe Green surprises, but why are the Cardinals rushing out to sign him for $6 million? The wide receiver market has been slow, and there are strong indications that younger, more productive players will be available for less in the weeks and months ahead. Arizona needs pass-catching help, but the process here is a bit of a head-scratcher.

Didn't seem to bother Tee Higgins who had almost a thousand yards receiving as a rookie. Tyler Boyd has had a thousand yards receiving in two of the past three seasons.

It seems like the NFC West besides the 49ers are the only f**king teams that make big moves like this. I wish other divisions had the balls to pony up because now the Cardinals are going to be even harder to beat unless they lose Chandler Jones which they will not.

We are making them now.

Cardinals signed James Connor... the most mediocre running back in NFL history. Irrelevant signing.

irrelevant team.

Hopkins is insanely good.
Murray doesn't have as high of ceiling as people think.
Watt is good for half the season at best with injury.

I don't think it's a terrible pick. They need LBs to cover Kittle and that's what they got.
