Well well well, look who's getting some attention these days and not for being terrible, the Arizona Cardinals announced the signing of Edgerrin James yesterday and it has some Cards fans, the few there actually are, excited.  No this isn't like when Emmitt Smith signed with the Cards, Edge actually has some years left in him.  What does this mean?

    Anyone remember "The Greatest Show on Turf",  stop laughing, really, take a look at the Cards offense, Boldin, Fitzgerald, add James in the backfield, and the former commander of the greatest show on turf Kurt Warner.  It should be explosive.  Let's not all hate on Kurt Warner, sure he has been injured, a lot.  But, with any luck, or any protection in the pocket he could have a rather big year.  Which brings me to the downfall of the team.  The Offensive Line, was Arrington's lackluster performance last year all his own doing?  I'd say yes, but nobody got the job done on the ground last year.  A running back can't do anything without an OL, well anyone not named Barry Sanders.

     So will James make a big impact on the ground game?  As the team stands right now, probally not too substancial of a change,  but the NFL draft is coming up.  Hopefully the Cards will realize that Jay Cutler is not a good idea for this team.  Sure he may be great, blah blah blah blah, but 1). They have a QB that has proven in the past he could get the job done. 2). Culpepper apparently likes the sound of the Cards cause of his connection with Dennis Green.  3) Josh McKnown proved that with the talent in the WR core that pretty much anyone could throw to these guys and look good.  4).  Did I mention their line is pathetic.  5). I'm not advocating taking a special teams player in the first round, but their special teams were absolutely dreadful, my point is, don't draft a player in a position where you are at least holding your own at, get help where you actually need it.

    This team has a real chance to make real leaps and bounds, and more than the 9 wins that others only want to give them.  Cards or not, moving into not only a new stadium, but their own stadium will be a great boost to the team as well.  New stadium, a team on the rise, don't expect the usual Sun Devil Stadium turnout.  If the Cards address actual issues they have in the draft they could contend, if they waste their first round pick on Cutler, then don't be surprised when Warner and Cutler both go down with injuries because they passed up the chance to draft someone who could block for a QB, anyone could throw to these WR's as long as they're not always scrambling for their lives or getting hurt.
