In a move long anticipated and much debated, the Cardinals cut veteran tackle L.J. Shelton, ending what had been a tumultuous relationship over the past year with coach Dennis Green. The team had been trying all offseason to trade Shelton. One potential deal was with Buffalo for Henry, but the Bills didn't think Shelton alone was worth trading Henry for, so a trade never came to fruition.

The word in Miami is that ex-Patriot defensive lineman Keith Taylor could be headed to the Dolphins to be the designated nose tackle when coach Nick Saban goes to the 3-4.

Yeah you might have heard all of this by now but whats your take on this?

I really hope that we do sign Traylor to help out our DT situation. As for LJ, he might be asking for too much money.
 
LJ Shelton only
TRaylor is like 37 and would be a waste of money

LJ might cost alot but would be a great pickup
 
We need Traylor, LJ would be a good pickup but not a deep need.

But if theres anyone out there that we should spend our money on its LJ Shelton, not Ty Law.

Traylor a waste of money?:eek:

Do you not realize that we're paper thin at DT!

Carter - The only reliable starter that we have.

Timbo - His career is over!

Chester - His knee is a question mark and he just went under the knife again.

Zgonina - An old rotation guy that might be traded.

Vickerson - A 7th round rook.

Bringing in Traylor (for a year) would be a great move!
 
If Traylor signs cheap we should get him...LJ would be nice, but how much will he want? IF anything i wouldnt want LJ to go to the Jets or Bills.
 
I think Keith Traylor would be a great addition because he will definitely improve our rushing defense and I feel that he will come cheap. L.J Shelton on the other hand, well I think that is an interesting situation. Isn't the reason why he left Arizona was because he wanted more money? Arizona isn't necessarily set at the Offensive Line position, and aside from Leonard Davis, their offensive line isn't too impressive. So figure that they let argueably their second best player on their O-line go because they didn't want to pay him the money. I think that should tell us something... I would be all for giving Shelton an interview and see if Houck sees anything special in the kid. Even though our Left Tackle situation is a big question mark at the moment, I honestly don't feel that we should be overpaying for Shelton who is average at best. I'm all for taking it into consideration, but I wouldn't go all crazy and overpay the guy. Keith Traylor gets my vote.

Shelton's a RT anyways. He's not even an average LT.
True, but I would definitely think that he would be trying out for LT for us since Stockar McDougle would most likely be our RT. I thought that, that was what everyone has been saying. If we signed Shelton, that he would play LT for us? :confused:

Statistically he is as good as Jennings was in Buffalo.

Id grab Shelton and see what Houck can do with him.

Shelton has played LT the past four seasons.

He will continue to do so.....

With what? We will have 2Mil of cap room after we sign the Rookies and we need a DT bad. There will not be enough left for Shelton.
