With free agency rapidly approaching, these five players could be good fits for the Arizona Cardinals.
The NFL’s free agency period begins on March 9th, and the “legal tampering” period – a time during which teams can begin negotiating with players’ agents – begins on March 7th. With Arizona Cardinals General Manager Steve Keim expressing that the Cardinals will be aggressive in free agency, it is reasonable to anticipate that some important pieces will be added during the NFL’s annual spending spree.
But the question that remains is who will the Cardinals look to sign? With this in mind, let us look at five unrestricted free agents, who appear to be a good fit for the Arizona Cardinals.
In compiling this list, there were three key things I considered. First, I looked at positions where the Cardinals have a need for either an upgrade or added depth. Second, I looked for players who are a good fit for what the Cardinals like to do schematically. Finally, I paid particular attention to the tendencies Steve Keim has demonstrated in his tenure as General Manager of the Cardinals, and sought to include potential signings that match those patterns.
Subsequently, some of these players are not big names. There is, however, at least one player on the list who is the top free agent at his position.
