Cardinals Offseason Transactions

[Davis_Mike]

This thread going forward is to list recent FA signings or current players that released by the Cardinals. I would appreciate it if whoever has mod powers on this board would please sticky this thread.

This one is not a surprise & just about guarantees Dansby will be back. Estimated total free cap space after this move is $18.4 mil.

 

[Davis_Mike]

The free cap space after cutting Brinkely is $17,875,088.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Signed for depth & potential roster moves. He is a long shot to make the final roster.

 

[Davis_Mike]

He played well last season & was a good rotation backup for Dan Williams. Hopefully he will be fully recovered from his injury to start the season.

 

[Jonas_steven]

I was impressed with Ta'amus' play. He put a lot of heart and energy into his performance.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Sorry, I was out of town for the last few days & will update the the recent transactions.

 

[Davis_Mike]

I called this one back at the beginning January. It made too much sense not to happen.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Right now the cap money available not including Carleson's $2+ mil or so, is $22,230,088.

Lots to of room to get Dansby back, add one of the top 3 LT(s), & add a starting SS/pass rusher.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Nothing official being reported. Deals cant be signed till Tuesday afternoon.

This was my top target @ LT.

 

[Davis_Mike]

The cap number after the John Carleson signing is $21,212,588.

 

[Davis_Mike]

With Feeley's contract, that will probably put us in the $19 mil range for cap space.

 

[Davis_Mike]

The current cap number is $19,811,234. This does not include Feely's new contract.

 

[Davis_Mike]

I guess it's as official as it gets till the ink is dry.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Official AZ moves at the start of the new year.

 

[Jonas_steven]

Off to a great start! Thanks for opening up other options, dansby!

 

[Davis_Mike]

Only $2.5 mil against the 2014 cap? With Veldheer & the recent re-signings, I estimate we have about $15-16 mil left to spend.

 

[Shaggy]

I wouldn't mind D Ware.

 

[Davis_Mike]

I was afraid the Patriots were going to steal him away from us. While he won't put up eye-popping numbers, he is a solid rotational guy. He played mostly out of position last year when our 3 OLB(Acho, Alexander, & Okafor) all went down within a week of each other & did a solid job.

 

[Jonas_steven]

Great news about shauny! I was really hoping we would retain him! Great signing.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Here are a few more signings from yesterday.
