As the Arizona Cardinals finish off the off-season in preparation for the start of training camp on July 25th in Glendale at University of Phoenix Stadium, we are going to take a look at the team roster from A to Z as it currently stands.  Next up is defensive end Kareem Martin.

2013 season: Martin had 78 tackles and 11 sacks last season at the University of North Carolina.  He also racked up three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.

2014 season: The third-round draft pick is strong at the point of attack but considered weak getting around corners.  Is considered a possible replacement for Darnell Dockett at some point down the road.  I have to see more to believe that but I want to believe it.  Martin should be a nice addition to the defensive line this season.  Initially will be a backup but if he produces he could increase his playing time.
