in free agency. Let’s discuss which of the new Cardinals will have the biggest impact in 2019. Also: will any of these players even be around in 2020?"As we discussed previously Youth Larry Fitzgerald Jersey , most of the Cardinals’ player acquisitions this offseason have been made with 2019 in mind—which is in line with GM Steve Keim’s usual approach to free agency. While I don’t love the idea of continuing to plug roster holes with stopgap solutions, it’s also common knowledge that teams aren’t built through free agency.We’ll see if Keim can add a few franchise building blocks in this year’s draft. But, for now, let’s take a look at his roster moves thus far through the lens of 2019. Which new Cardinals will make the biggest impact on the field next season? We’ll then briefly discuss whether this approach to free agency is the right one. Let’s start by discussing a few players whom Cardinals fans should hope don’t see the field much in 2019.Limited ImpactBrett HundleyMax GarciaKevin WhiteDamiere these three.5) OLBs Terrell Suggs/Brooks ReedThese two will likely combine to man the OLB spot opposite Chandler Jones. Reed figures to play on early downs and obvious run situations, while Suggs will be the 3rd-down and pass-rushing specialist. I think we’ll get very solid play from this duo—I’m especially excited to see what Suggs can do chasing down QBs alongside Jones. I just have them a little lower on this list as it seems likely that a rookie edge player will cut into their playing time—whether it be a top pick like Nick Bosa/Josh Allen or a later pick. At least, there’d better be a rookie pushing them, as both of these guys are basically on 1-year deals.4) TE Charles ClayClay is the best tight end we’ve had in the desert since… I don’t know, maybe ever? Not that he’s a Pro Bowl–caliber player Limited Chandler Jones Jersey , or even an above-average starter. I mean, he’s 30 years old and coming off a season in which he only caught 21 passes with no TDs. But the TE position has been so barren for years that Clay is a monumental improvement—or at least, he will be if he stays healthy (he always seems to get nicked up). From 2013–2017, he averaged 57 receptions, 600 yards, and almost 4 TDs a season. If he can even come close to replicating those numbers—or even 80% of those numbers—he’ll be worth every penny of the $2M we’ll be paying him in 2019.3) RG J.R. Sweezy and RT Marcus GilbertThe new right side of our O-line have both been competent players when healthy. And that’s the key for these two—“when healthy.” Sweezy has been pretty durable other than the 2016 season in Tampa Bay, which he missed after offseason back surgery, but Gilbert has played just 12 games combined the past two season after suffering various lower-body injuries. He has two 16-game seasons on his resume Chandler Jones Cardinals Jersey , but he has also missed 9 or more games three times. Still, there’s no doubt that this duo, when on the field, will be an improvement on Justin Pugh playing out of position and the tackle formerly known as Andre Smith (as well as the revolving door of their replacements). But the question remains how long they can stay healthy.2) DE Darius PhilonDefensive line was one of the biggest team needs this offseason, and many started to panic a bit when the position went unaddressed for most of free agency. Although the D-line is still an unfinished project, Keim rallied nicely with the Philon signing. Philon was a bright spot on the D-line for the Chargers in 2018 and is still young (25) and pretty cheap (2 years, $10M). He will look good next to Corey Peters in the trenches and should help both against the run and the pass (8.5 sacks combined the past two seasons). Philon won’t be an every-down player, but he will produce when on the field for new DC Vance Joseph.1) ILB Jordan HicksThe 2018 season was a down year for the usually sturdy Redbirds defense Elite Chandler Jones Jersey , and the play at inside LB was a big reason why. The inexplicable change to a 4-3 didn’t help matters, but guys like the departed Deone Bucannon and 2nd-year player Haason Reddick were constantly out of position in the running game and couldn’t cover opposing RBs in the passing game. Veterans like Josh Bradford, Bene Benwikere, and Brice Butler (remember him?). Every free agent acquisition from last year aside from Justin Pugh are now gone. Again, you can’t build a team through free agency, but you should at least be able sign a handful of contributors each offseason. Hopefully Hicks and Philon are those guys from this free agent class.But you have to question Keim’s continued reliance on castoffs, retreads, and “prove-it” players—especially given his fallow draft classes of the past few years. These kind of “Keim Time” signings worked well when he was drafting well—signing veteran players to complement the foundation he built through the draft. But they don’t work as well when there is no foundation to complement.If this latest free agent crop doesn’t pan out and he makes the wrong call with the #1 pick Game Chandler Jones Jersey , Keim Time might be up sooner that most think.Any thoughts on these new players, Redbirds fans? Who do you see making the most impact in 2019? What do you think about Keim’s approach to free agency? Let us know if the comments. Bless their hearts, the Cardinals are selling this thing as hard as they can.The team with the No. 1 overall pick’s latest attempt to talk around the elephant in the room came in the form of the traditional draft position-by-position series.After listing the three quarterbacks presently under contract, they listed the team’s need at the position as “Low.”Other than the fact that most people expect them to take Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray first overall in the 2019 NFL Draft, I suppose that’s the case.This isn’t to make fun of the Cardinals’ website staff, they are good people who work hard creating quality internet content about the NFL’s all-time losingest franchise (the Bucs do have them on percentage — .385 to .424 — but the Cards had a 56-year head start and stints in Chicago and St. Louis while amassing 753 Ls).But the franchise has been clumsily selling some position (it’s hard to tell which one) throughout this offseason.Team owner Michael Bidwill started the ball rolling by saying they had to “build around the foundation” they had. Which was fine and nice of them to prop up 2018 first-rounder Josh Rosen, except new head coach Kliff Kingsbury had previously declared he’d take Murray first overall if he had the chance. Which he now does.Then Kingsbury tried to talk up Rosen, and the team wagged its Twitter finger at the rest of us Chandler Jones Womens Jersey , which was all fun until General Manager Steve Keim went to the Scouting Combine and said Rosen was their quarterback “right now, for sure.” Then they made a show of not showing up for Murray’s Pro Day (while of course arranging private workouts and meetings with him).If this sounds like we’re picking on the Cardinals, we’re not (well maybe a little). But their efforts to keep a straight face throughout this process have left them tangled in knots a time or two. All we can be certain of is that a team whose depth chart includes Rosen, Brett Hundley and Charles Kanoff has a need at the position that is definitely something other than “Low.”
