Balto 723 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/cardinals-open-to-discussing-a-potential-patrick-peterson-trade-willing-to-reshape-roster/ Jason La Canfora reporting Cardinals open to discussing a potential Patrick Peterson trade, willing to reshape roster Arizona is looking to rebuild and should be very active ahead of the trade deadline The Arizona Cardinals could be one of the NFL's most active teams ahead of the trade deadline, with league sources indicating that All-Pro corner Patrick Peterson is among the players the team is willing to move. Arizona is off to a slow start, has already transitioned from Sam Bradford to Josh Rosen at quarterback and the front office is keeping an open mind about moves to reposition the franchise for the future. The Cardinals had hoped to compete for a playoff spot this season with a roster largely comprised of players brought in while Bruce Arians was head coach and with the hope that Bradford, with a contract worth up to $20M for 2018, could keep them relevant in the NFC West. But the tenor of this campaign has already shifted significantly to the point where several sources indicated a trade involving Peterson, perhaps the top corner in football, is quite possible by the deadline a little over two weeks from now. MORE ON THE NFL NFL Week 6 Power Rankings: Rams and Chiefs look like contenders, but are they really that good? Accruing high draft picks will be imperative if the team is to rebuild around Rosen, and there will be numerous holes to fill on this roster is it currently stands. As reported last week, the Cardinals are also seeking a trade for safety/linebacker Deone Bucannon, a former first-round pick who has not fit in their new defensive scheme (a trade is likely, sources said), and are also open to moving linebacker Haason Reddick, the 13th overall pick in 2017, though his steep salary is expected to severely limit any real trade market for him, rival general managers said. But Peterson could be a potential blockbuster that would put the Cardinals in position to make significant noise in the next few drafts. He continues to play at a truly elite level, he is incredibly versatile, and, with the corner market exploding since his last contract, his salaries of $11M in 2019 and $12M in 2020 (when he turns 30) significantly increase his trade value as well. In the past, future Hall of Fame receiver Larry Fitzgerald has always been emphatic about wanting to remain a Cardinal for his entire NFL career, a wish the franchise would always grant, but some general managers wonder if the receiver might alter that stance by the end of the month should this season look hopeless in Arizona and if Fitzgerald, year-to-year with retirement plans, wanted a chance to get a ring elsewhere. Regardless, the Cardinals will be one of the most closely watched teams in the NFL ahead of the deadline, and with most of the intense trade talks taking place in Week 8, there is a strong expectation that the Cardinals will be among the best-positioned teams to wheel and deal with playoff teams seeking various players off their roster.

Palangi 788 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I wouldn't go higher than a 3rd considering he is 28 years old already. But I would give up a4th for Reddick. He might be nice in our 3-4 as an OLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dksww 484 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The Cards will want a 1st round pick for it. He's a top CB in the league and is under control for 3 years. It would take a 1st, 3rd and 4th to get both players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfriend 1,151 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I wouldn't make the trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggjliv4 1,292 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I'd offer a 2nd & 5th...guy is proven and would be a huge addition for us. Il I'm feeling generous...I'd throw in Sutton as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfriend 1,151 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 The Chiefs are getting pretty decent corner play all things considered. Let the guys play. Ragland is a major liability right now and I don't think it's gonna get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggjliv4 1,292 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 That PI by Nelson is exactly why we need to trade for Peterson, he's not a starter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will get better with time, but Hitchens and Ragland don't fit Suttons scheme. You need quick inside LBs that can cover in space like DJ back in the day. The game has evolved into a more finesse. Style play. That's on Veach you don't just get two thumping ILBs. Those days are over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamardirts 2,121 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I'd give up a 2nd for Peterson but that is all. He's probably worth a 1st but we are just starting to see our true SB window open no need to shorten that window down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we trade Anthony Hitchens for him straight up? I'd be willing to throw in Reggie Ragland too. Can Ben Neiman be worse than those two atm?

sith13 1,746 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Don't know the asking price but Veach should be on this right now. 3 solid CBs will make the work easier on Safeties as long as we don't break the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way you can keep the thumper type guy that is still better than Ragland and get the guy to replace Hitchens role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hankstromboli 25 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 You have to go out and get him. It speeds up the defense rebuild. We need a ton of help on d so jump on a player like PP. You're not going to find a player like that in the draft next year. Our d is apeshit bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont waste a pick. 2019 is the real beginning of a KC 10 year run. Of course one player isn't making a difference. The issue is we need 10 new players on D, it's imperative to go out and get a top corner if he's available. This is a no brainer as you have one less person to get next year plus he'll get some experience playing in our scheme. We need soo much help on d, you need ot get guys this year if at all possible.

Dont waste a pick. 2019 is the real beginning of a KC 10 year run. I’d think Veach would disagree with you simply based on the rumors of KC was super close on Earl Thomas trade. This to me says Veach know draft picks, even a 1st or 2nd can be underperforming or busts. Peterson isn’t a safety no....Peterson isn’t a LB no.....what Peterson is, is a shut down corner that can take away a wr1 without having to double him. Thus giving relief to the safeties to focus on other areas like run stopping(helping our LBs) or coverage(helping other cbs). Getting a guy like Peterson who I feel is even a step up from what we ever got from Peters would have a trickle down effect that’s helps the entire D!
