Creating Order re: Cardinals' Positional Chaos - Coach LaFleur, here are some suggestions By Walter Mitchell Yesterday, I elaborated on the positional chaos the Cardinals have amassed at QB, WR, RG, RT, NT, RDE, ILB, ED and CB. Some may have thought of the article as being overly negative. That was not my ultimate intention. When I write articles of a critical nature, it is an attempt to encourage change.  I still ask the question --- how can it be that in year four of the Cardinals' rebuild, they have so many positions that are in a total state of flux? The one guy more than any other who can create order out of this chaos is Mike LaFleur.  So, today I am going to make these suggestions to Coach LaFleur: QB The Cardinals' owe it to Michael Wilson, Trey McBride, Marfvin Harrrison Jr., Hjalte Froholdt and all of the offensive players who played the butts off during such a woeful, lost season by you sticking with Jacoby Brissett, the QB they believe in. Coach, when you look a...

 Cardinals' Positional Chaos By Walter Mitchell It's difficult to imagine that in year four of an NFL rebuild, the Arizona Cardinals continue to be mired in chaos at the following positions: QB, WR, RG, RT, NT, RDE, ED, ILB and CB. Let's take it, Cardinals' fans, one position at a time.

Trade Proposal: Josh Sweat for Lukas Van Ness and a 2027 3rd By Walter Mitchell On the one hand it would seem absurd for the Arizona Cardinals to trade away their best and most productive edge rusher. especially after Monti Ossenfort once again passed on top edge rushing prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft. An unpleasant reminder. Cardinals' 2026 Team Leaders in Sacks: * Josh Sweat - 12 * Calais Campbell - 6.5 * Walter Nolen - 2 * Barron Browning - 2 * Zaven Collins - 1.5 The problem is, just as Calais Campbell signed with the Baltimore Ravens to have a chance to compete for a ring, Josh Sweat apparently wants to do the same. Jordan Schultz @Schultz_Report · 14h Sources: The #Cardinals have received trade calls on Pro Bowl DE Josh Sweat . Sweat had 12 sacks last season in his first year with Arizona and had a close relationship with Jonathan Gannon, whom the Cardinals moved on from. Typically, when one sees a report from an NFL pundit like Jordan Schultz regarding trade discussions...
