Edge to Arizona

wow. Contrary to belief they actually tried to run the ball a good amount last year but they sucked at it. Two 1400 yard receivers but they couldn't break 3.0 yards per carry. Now their offense seems to be set but they need a defense.

I still am not sure with Arizona, they were suppose to breakout last season, and a couple seasons before that, still waiting......

James and Green are on ESPN Now!!! Now what dose Indy do???

HUGE first year of that deal!!

ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli reports Arizona Cardinals RB Edgerrin James' four-year contract worth $30 million has the following breakdown: James receives an immediate signing bonus of $7 million and an additional roster bonus of $4.5 million later this week. James' base salaries are $3.25 million for 2006, $5.25 million (2007), $5 million (2008) and $5 million (2009), according to sources. The deal will pay James $20 million over the first two years. By comparison, the $62 million contract signed last week by RB Shaun Alexander with the Seattle Seahawks pays $18.5 million in the first two years.

He is the same size as Tomlinson.....
Edge is 28 so I would rather they have him. By the time my 9ers are in full swing Edge will be 30+

PS: as long as Warner is their QB they will not finnish above .500
I got money on that.....

They are waaaaaay ahead of the niners.

Why this is good for Washington that James when to the Cards. First he is not in the NFC east. Then this gives the Seattle a team that will not roll over two times a year! Because if the Skins wanted to win a super bowl we need to be at home in the play-offs!

That offense just keeps getting better. They already have great WRs and now they add Edge. That's a huge addition for them. A good running game can take a lot of pressure off of the QB and allow him to be successful. Look at Washington. When the offense was clicking everything was working pretty well for them. With this addition the Cardinals now have a legit running game.

This could make the NFC West a little bit interesting with Rams doing whatever the hell the Rams are doing and the Hawks obviously impressing last season. Now you have the Cards possibly moving up to try to take a wild card spot away from some teams in the NFC, very interesting.

so far the rams are having a good offseason. they kept their WRs, and they're building a defense... I don't know if there's enough out there for them to improve enough to push for the playoffs, but at least they're making an attempt. (their offense is snowhere near good enough to overcome a dreadful defense anymore, and even when is was, that kind of offensive power is RARELY seen).

HUGE first year of that deal!!

they got the space, that's actually a good decision (as long as he stays healthy). at 5$ per they can keep him the length of the contract, ditch him if he hits the wall, and only keep him until 32 (when he'll be nearly worthless as far as contracts go).

I know they're having a great offseason, but for whatever reason, I forgot who their coach was. I was still thinking Martz for some reason (too much school going on right now). That's why I was taking that shot at them, I forgot all about Linehan coming in. I think this should make the NFC West very interesting this season.

I wasn't saying it was a bad decision, merely stating that he's getting a ton of money in the first year.
