Arizona Cardinals: 10 players to target in free agency
By Scott Allen
Drew Stanton, QB
Yes, the Cardinals do have their own free agents to decide on as well. Their top priority on that group of players should be Stanton. Having Stanton as a backup is certainly reassuring. Stanton won’t blow you away but he is very serviceable as a backup.
Stanton is 31 so age is not a factor here. He knows the Cardinals system. No better guy to keep around. If Stanton does bolt Arizona, it will be for more money and a better chance at starting. If Stanton does end up bolting, I would not be surprised to see the Cardinals shoot for Ryan Fitzpatrick, who is slightly older than Stanton.
If for nothing else, Stanton is quite the cheerleader. He is a personality this team needs, so hopefully he ends up right back with the Cardinals in 2016.
