Calais Campbell’s 18-year NFL odyssey comes to fruition
Back in 2008 when the Arizona Cardinals drafted Calais Campbell in the 2nd round at pick #50, they essentially acquired the prototypical epitome of a 34 defensive end. Coming out of the University of Miami at 6’8”, 290 pounds, 35 3/4” arms, posting a 5.0 40. 1.72 10-yard split, 7.19 3-cone and 34.” vertical after garnering 129 tackles, 39 tackles for loss and 19.5 sacks during his three years as an 1st Team ACC All-Star, Calais Campbell was an utter force to be reckoned with.
During the Cardinals’ 2008 run to its...

The big man is back where it all started.
The Arizona Cardinals are bringing back a veteran defensive lineman, one that probably never got away.
The team has agreed to a one-year contract with Calais Campbell.

ESPN thinks the Arizona Cardinals still have a need at wide receiver.
We are on the homestretch of the 2025 NFL Draft and for the Arizona Cardinals the question becomes what are the teams biggest needs.
After free agency you and I have our thoughts, but what do the experts at ESPN think?

Do you approve of the changes?
While the NFL owners’ and players’ talks about banishing the Tush Push and for playoffs re-seeding by best records have been tabled for now, there are a few new rule wrinkles that have been agree to:
The BIG TWO:
I am delighted to see both of these amendments. How about you? It’s all about being. fair.

What the Cardinals need to look for in the 2025 NFL Draft
Stopping the run.
There’s been a long and heated debate on X of which 2025 DT is a better fit for the Cardinals: Derrick Harmon or Kenneth Grant.
The point of my Blue Dot Special project was to discern which top DTs in the 2025 NFL Draft are good at both stopping the run and rushing the passer.
Derrick Harmon was not one of them. Here’s the reason why:
