			  |  |  
			  | Quarterbacks 01 Murray,  12 McCoy, 15 Streveler,
 State of the 
    Position - Murray's locked in, but depth behind him is questionable.
 |  
			  | Running Backs 02 Edmonds, 6 Connor, 29 Ward, 26 Benjamin, 37 Feaster
 State of the Position 
	- Drake is gone. Connor has arrived. Starting combo figures to be Edmonds (Mr Outside) and Connor (Mr Outside)
 |  
			  | Wide Receivers WR - 13 Kirk,  04 Moore, 38 Dortch, 83 Richardson
 WR - 18 Green, 17 Isabella, 82 Bacelliia
 WR - 
			  10 Hopkins, 19 K Johnson, 33 Wesley
 State of the 
    Position - Cards are set at starting WR and the roles that they play. It will be tough for a backup to to break into the Top 6.. Cards drafted speedster Moore.
 |  
			  | Tight Ends TE - 87 M Williams, 81 Daniels, 48 Travis, 86 D Harris, 43 Seikovitz
 State of the 
    Position - This is not the most talented position on the roster.
 |  
			  | Offensive Line LT- 74 Humphries, 66 Miles, 60 K Martin
 LG - 67 Pugh,    64 Harlow, 62 Calhoun
 OC-
			    61 Hudson, 73 Garcia, 72 Menet, 53 Henry
 RG- 71 Murray, 65 Winters
 RT - 68 Beachum, 79 J Jones
 State of the 
    Position - Steve Keim apparently made OL-depth a prime off-season priority. While the Cardinal OL may lack charisma, it is deep in lunchpail depth. Cards drafted a center (Menet).
 |  
			  | Defensive Interior Line DT- 99 Watt, 94 Allen 91 Dogbe
 NT - 90 Lawrence, 98 Peters, 78 C Murray
 DT - 97 J Phillips, 95 Fotu, 96 Mauro,76 Hunt
 State of the 
    Position - Biggest news was the signing of Watt. Thiss looks like a talented physical group of youngsters with plenty of room to grow.
 |  
			  | Linebackers OLB - 55 C Jones 45 Gardeck, 92 Dimukeje
 ILB - 48 Simmons, 51 Vallejo 47 Turner,xx T Smith
 ILB - 25 Collins, 58 Hicks, 50 Weaver,
 OLB - 44 Golden, 92, 42 Kennard, 49 Fitts, 56 Young
 State of the 
    Position - Loss of Riddick weakens this unit - but some migjht say "not by a lot." The status of this unit is very iffy and fluid - especially when a DE like Watt can impact the Cardinal pass rush and LB play. I can't wait to see C Jones, Simmons snd Watt all "bringing it" on a pass rush. Cards drafted Dimukkeje and Collins
 |  
			  | Defensive BacksCB -30 Dennard, 07 Murphy Jr, 20 M Wilson, 39 Whittaker
 CB - 
		          21 Butler. 23 Alford, 37 Worley, 32 Gowan
 S - 34 J Thompson, 22 D Thompson
 S - 03 Baker, 31 Banjo, 36 S Williams, 38 Wiggins, 40 Tillman
 State of the 
              Position			  - Patrick Peterson is outtahere - (How much juice he had left in the tank is open to debate.Butler may not be as sexy as PP21, but the hope is that the combo of Butler and a healthy Alford provide steady if not spectacular CB play. Cards are set at one S spot with Pro Bower Baker, but talent and depth could be better at the other safety spot. If we had to single out the roster position that worries us the most depth-wise and talent-wise, it would be the Cardinal secondary. If Steve Keim were to "draft for need", his #1 priority would be at corner. Cards drafted M Wilson, Gowan and Wiggins

			  | Special Teams
			      P - 04 Lee, 16 Winslow
 K- 05 Prater
 H - 14 Lee,
 LS-  46 Brewer
 KR 
	              -
	              04 Moore
 PR - 04 Moore
 State of the 
	          Position - Gonzalez had talent but was just inconsistent enough to cost us a couple of close games last season. Prater is steadier. Lee is OK. Returners problably won't be determined till the final cut. I sense the backdoor strategy is to keep a few guys who can sbespecial team difference makers.
