After a rocky start on defense Cheap Christian Kirk Jersey , some small scheme adjustments along with the patented forcing of turnovers have found a way to keep the Arizona Cardinals in their first early start game of 2018.Josh Rosen and the offense look really pedestrian still.Despite two redzone trips! the offense has only three points on the day.No, the story of the first half is the defense.After getting completely gashed in the run game by Latavius Murray on the Minnesota Vikings second offensive drive of the game, the defense has found their legs.Murray is still putting up good numbers, nine carries for 66 yards, but most of those came on the one and only touchdown drive of the game for the Vikings.No, today the defense has forced two Kirk Cousins turnovers Jamar Taylor Jersey , a Tre Boston interception on an inexplicable Cousins decision and a strip sack that lead to a Budda Baker scoop and score.It looks like the defense will have to do most of the heavy lifting if the Cardinals want a chance to win this game.Enjoy the second half and go Cardinals! The NFL trade deadline is approaching on October 30, 2018. What if the Cardinals and Jaguars participated in a trade?The Arizona Cardinals trade the following players to the Jacksonville Jaguars:QB Sam Bradford* (*waives his no-trade clause)LB Deone BucannonDE Zach MooreIn exchange for:DE Dante FowlerWR Donte MoncriefLB Blair BrownCap Implications:If I am correct about the half-year salaries, the Cardinals save $1.5M on the cap and the Jaguars add $1.5M. The Jags currently have approximately $6.2M in cap space, so they are in good shape to make this trade. The Cardinals currently have about $8.2M in cap space.Why the Cardinals could make the trade:All three players do not figure in the Cardinals’ 2019 plans. It’s a waste for Sam Bradford to be inactive each week. Deone Bucannon needs a change of scenery—-and he played his best football when he was protected by Calais Campbell.With Markus Golden heading to free agency, why not see what Dante Fowler can do the Cardinals defense. If he and Donte Moncrief fit in, perhaps the Cardinals can re-sign them before they hit free agency. At least they would have that chance—-or—-the Cardinals could get decent comp pick consideration if Fowler and Moncrief sign elsewhere. Blair Brown Cheap Budda Baker Jersey , in his 2nd year, has yet to find his niche in the Jags’ defense, but, because of his speed, he could be a good fit in Steve Wilks’ defense. Brown is a similar player to Jeremy Cash whom the team lost in the pre-season. Why the Jaguars could make the trade:Dante Fowler and Donte Moncrief will be free agents in 2019. The Jags have already elected to decline Fowler’s 5th year option. Both Fowler and Moncrief have been inconsistent and are in the top ten of the Jags’ highest salaries. The Jags like their rookie WR D.J. Chark enough to let Moncrief go.Obviously, the Jags are in the trade market for a QB and Bradford might be the most affordable veteran QB on the block. He would seem to be a good fit in Doug Marrone’s offense. Calais Campbell can attest to how good Deone Bucannon was playing behind him in Arizona. And Zach Moore has upside as a situational edge rusher and they could control his rights in 2019 Deone Bucannon Jersey , if they like him.Now—-3 for 3 player trades rarely happen in the NFL—-but, in this case, a 3 for 3 makes sense because of the team needs and the salary off-sets.As a Cardinals fan, would you make this trade?
