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.

    • At the moment? Absolutely not. Maybe if they drop the next three in a row and go into the deadline at 3-6 I can see an argument to be made to move Rico as he's on a 1yr deal. I'd rather keep Chuba's contract though and roll with ETN + JB next season. The team will have plenty of time to see how JB is looking going into the offseason a year-plus after his surgery to know whether or not they need to plan for another direction.
    • I forgot to mention my thoughts on the rushing grade! 😮 He ran his ass off both weeks. I can't remember the stat offhand but didn't he have something crazy like 120+ yards after contact vs. Dallas? Against Miami he had lanes as wide as the entirety of I-95 to run through which is why his rushing grade wasn't as high as this week's. He's ran like a man possessed and going to earn himself some money in the offseason.
    • I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.
