Arizona Cardinals Budda Baker Can Finally Play His Game

Arizona Cardinals have had many ups and downs across the entire roster over the last handful of seasons. One constant on the defensive side of the ball has been Budda Baker since being drafted by the Arizona Cardinals in 2017. Unfortunately for most of his career, Budda Baker has had to cover up for weak spots in the Arizona Cardinals defense.....namely the secondary. The cornerback room for the Arizona Cardinals, since Patrick Peterson's prime ended in 2016 hasn't been good. Who's had to cover up for that? Budda Baker and Jalen Thompson. Now, with an infusion of talent on all three levels of the Cardinals defense, Budda Baker is now finally able to play his game. Two other defensive veteran x-factors for the Arizona Cardinals in 2024 are Zaven Collins and Kyzir White. Why? Let's discuss.

I'm looking to see if Cam Thomas, Dante Stills, Kei'trel Clark develop. 2 late round picks by MO, took significant snaps by necessity. This team played more rookies than any other team, right? Was it enough for those 2? And they let the other 3rd round pass rusher go, the kid from Cincinnati? But Thomas stuck around; why? Numbers? Or did they see someone they could develop? He did his duty, took special teams snaps, like Pappoe. Will these guys take another step and amount to anything, even if just a backup? Jon Gaines? This is what all the losses were for, the gutting of the roster. The lack of excitement and splashy FA signings. So we can actually have young depth everywhere, for the first time in a long while.

Budda probably told Monti I’m sick of losing.. Monti said ok I understand give it this yr if we don’t win to your expectations.. we respect you to play the open market.. if we win and you like what you see .. we can work out a deal

Do things right, and good things happen IS the law of Cause and effect which is what Karmas definition means.

Alex I also have to say not to be opposite on Wilson take.. 5 games with Murray he only had 1 good game the last one 6-6 95 yards vs sea.. the other 4 games….. 2 games zero catches on 7 attempts.. and 3 of 6 for 34 yards and 4 of 6 for 35 yards.. I agree he has potential and is a well spoken young man.. I like that about him and wish him well and to hopefully not injured again this yr..

[@elawen5]

Yeah they literally never practiced together. Took them a few games to get that chemistry. Obviously

[@joegastelo1804]

Alex my guy I listen to you all the time however I'm not sure if you have any segments with Xavier Weaver if you do let me know which one it is if not let's get it. I feel like he is a legitimate diamond in the rough

[@LockedOnCardinals]

Will discuss soon!

Alex …..Collins wasn’t drafted to play a wrong position out of college.. he played inside LB in college.. Played inside under Kliff..now he’s playing a position not natural at outside.. maybe you got it mixed up when explaining..
