According to some random guy on Twitter claiming it's from some bloody at ESPN but offering no proof of that?

On Panther's Wire too. No idea, just found it and trying to share.

Who?

Most of his career has been spent with Denver.  Last year with the Falcons.  Played 16 games.  58 tackles, 32 solo, 26 assist, 9 passes defended, 2 interceptions.  6'2", but is 31 years old.  Did not show up in PFF top 32 safeties.

I just gave myself a crash course, so I thought I would share.

We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.

Bingo I like Ransom a lot but I’d rather not go into the season with a rookie being the last line of defense. Found this online and now I might be ok with the rook being the last line lol.

As for Justin Simmons: • 59.9 PFF grade • 53.8 run defense grade, 60.8 coverage grade • 19.8% missed tackle rate He’s more so just a name at this stage. The tackling issues really scare me.

Yeah, I think counting on a rookie 4th rounder to start would be a big mistake. Bring in a vet stopgap and if the rookie is ahead of schedule, great. But don't force it.

I'd rather hear this rumor than some of the crazy ones I've seen over the past month or so. 

I like the idea of Simmons just because he has history with Evero.  Less of a learning curve.

AND we could use another veteran safety. 

But wasn’t that the same thing with Fuller? And he was terrible. I feel like we have brought in a lot of guys because of Evero’s familiarity with them and it hasn’t helped at all. Idk why Evero gets such a pass. The Saints scored on every.single.drive week 1 when we were still healthy and had Brown. The Broncos defense got better after he left. When will he stop getting a pass for “not having players” and start getting hammered for not developing players or getting the best out of the players he has?

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option s a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The patter it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.

      Dude, I'm saying the Cardinals have proven they know nothing. Not saying keeping Bryce is the best choice long term, just saying that we've made the right move for this moment in time.  But man, the Cardinals are never a blueprint for success. Haven't been since they were in Chicago.
