Offensive line

There was never any doubt the Cardinals were going to address the offensive line at some point in the offseason.  It was the biggest deficiency on the Cardinals roster last season.

The Cardinals went out and got a group of free agents in J.R. Sweezy, Max Garcia, and as of Thursday afternoon, Desmond Harrison.  They also traded for Marcus Gilbert.

Can it really be considered a risk if they are changing parts out that can’t be any worse than what we saw last season when Rosen was sacked 45 times?  No, that’s not the risky part.

The risky part is filling the holes with guys that may not work out and having to do this all over again next offseason.  Judging by comments made by fans in social media, it’s almost as if they are counting on it.

Carson Palmer deserves ring of honor. dark. Next

We should all give this group a chance to gel over the summer and see what they have to offer.  It can’t be any worse than last year, or could it be?
