I have seen and heard it but I think I am gonna pass. Don't want to give up draft picks and the money for a wr that let's face it gets hurt a lot. I think where we are we can double dip on Wr's if need be. If we were to trade with Minnesota I think that would be a horrible deal to fill out our wr corp. Trading down that far to Minnesota just do not like that thinking more picks probably more average players and no shot at the stud. The only way a trade with Minnesota that would get the juices flowing for me is if JJ was involved and don't think that is happening so unless Minnesota is not willing to part with JJ they are in deep doo doo, lol they are between a rock and a hard spot.The weapons in Minnesota will not want to be there if they can't get a Qb.

What is the trade rumor? I'm confused since he plays for the Bengals and you did not mention what we would be giving up.

I don't see the Cards foolishly spending and wasting a lot of money on free agents that can't help. A WR free agent is a luxury spend for a team that is complete. We have holes all over. We need to rebuild through the draft. Now we have a GM who can actually draft. We are in complete rebuild mod and won't contend for the playoffs until 2025 at the earliest.

My Good Man, My friend I haven't seen you this upbeat about these Cardinals in years. Good to see you on,

The Bengals have a history of playing guys on the tag and letting them go the next year. Recent history with their safety in fact. They probably want to take one last run with their duo.
Higgins has been making his displeasure known. Not too a sure gowbmuch leverage he has...

It was rumored that Arizona was one of the teams that could be in on a trade for Higgins because he wants out of cincy. Several sources brought this up but he is not on my list exp and pick or picks plus big contract. the guy is great when healthy but he gets hurt to much.

I wouldn't be opposed to a Higgins signing. It just depends on how much draft capital he would cost to acquire.
The WR room as it stands now is very weak. Michael Wilson who might develop into a number 1 guy is injury prone. Greg Dortsch is a little guy with a huge competitive heart but just makes plays when his number is called. Zach Pascal? 4 receptions for 19 yds in 14 games?
Chris Moore? I like his measurables but nothing on his career stat line stands out and he's 30 yrs old.
I'm not opposed to Monti trading back for more draft capital as long as he and his staff have completed their due diligence in scouting Harrison jr., Nabors and Odunze.
Maybe the Cardinals trade back and use their newly acquired picks to trade for Higgins and still land either Nabors or Odunze. Who knows? 4th pick looking sweet for Monti and the Cardinals especially since Fields has been traded.

I see zero reason to expend draft capital AND a huge contract on a WR when this WR draft looks historically deep and we have the most draft capital I can remember us having. Sign an edge, a guard or a CB and call it a day.
