Derek Anderson?

I haven't seen this discussed much (or maybe I missed it) but given Chud's previous success with Derek Anderson and the likelihood that he will be released by the Cards, I could see DA as a vet FA QB we potentially target.

I could also see a scenario where we trade down to the Cards 5th overall pick and take Anderson as part of the deal...

PLEASE no! :eek:

Carson Palmer, Kyle Orton, or bust.

He's not the answer, but I could see it happening. Doubt he'd ever have another year like that one but it's enough to make teams consider him

I think he's likely to get cut, so I wouldn't bother with the trade. I think it would make some sense as Pickles doesn't seem to fit the more vertical game that Chud wants to go with. If we don't draft a quarterback though, it will be a long season of musical quarterbacks with him, Clausen, and Moore (or some free agent).

Yeah, I don't think he would go to another pro-bowl but Chud might be able to get one or two more good seasons out of him.

I do think some of Anderson's struggles may be related to trying to run an offense that was designed for Kurt Warner... I'm not making excuses for him, but this could have been part of the problem?

If anyone knows how to get DA's best, it's Chud...

Eh, maybe. But to be fair, he did struggle in the exact same offense he succeeded in the year before. It might have just been a one year thing.

Hasselbeck is the best available option atm imo

not sure, I got some friends that are Hawk fans......Charlie Whitehurst blew but many were wanting him to get a bigger shot. The guy we watched in the playoffs ain't the guy we would be getting.

    • I still think he skips this cycle in the end.
    • Free Agents NTs: I'm hoping we get DJ Jones and bring him home. We have to be getting one of these guys right? RIGHT? I Know they "claim" EJ "likes" undersized NTs for his scheme but I'm more apt to believe that Tuttle was just the best they could get with all the dead money and EJ was just saying he could scheme with an undersized NT not that he prefers it. In what world would you "prefer" your 3-4 to not have a traditional NT? Makes no sense to me but I feel it is honestly the biggest weakness on the team, moreso than Edge or #1 WR but getting one of these NT's in FA fixes it. For reference this is Shy Tuttle PFF:  DJ Jones PFF:   Similar stats but twice the run defender at the same position. Would help a lot. DJ Jones makes $10M AAV Shy Tuttle... $9.4M AAV, he has GOT to go. Cutting Tuttle would save $6.5M on the cap, then go pay what you have to to a real NT so we can stop the run next year.
    • I would say I wouldn't care about getting rid of this #8, provided one of the better guys doesn't make it to us(McMillian, Graham, Johnson, etc). But I mean that for a top flight WR, not just a "could be top flight WR." I mean like Garrett Wilson, Tee Higgins, etc.  But all future firsts are off the table and nothing more in the first three rounds, IMO. No more insane trade rapes like we have been subject to during the Tepper era.
