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 have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
