GrizzlyBear Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Cardinals are in desperate need of running back with this injury to the Cards RB Ryan Williams. We have 2 too many RBs right now and this would make good place to send C Taylor. Get a 5th for him would be good, or 6 and 7. What ya think?

Maybe The Whizz can do something with him. Would they be willing to part with some decent OLman in exchange? Say Womack, Lutui or Colledge? I'm sure he would at least be worth a 4 or 5, given their "desperate need". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearsFan1974 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 I don't think we'll get that high of pick if any for Taylor given his YPC. I think we're gonna cut him anyway and AZ would just pick him off the scrap heap. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to get something for him though. We won't get anything higher than a 6th rounder for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan Grizzly Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Hearing that its a blown Patellae Tendon. OUCH!!! Could be career ending. Here's to a quick recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ54 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Why is Arizona so desperate they are coming after Chester Taylor? They still have Beanie Wells but I agree they need to add a RB to the roster. There will be plenty of options here shortly. Taylor may well be on their short list of options but to trade a pick for him, I don't see it. I wouldn't mind being wrong on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ya think? i dont think teams will trade now...usually they wait to see what guys get cut and go from there. nobody wants to give up a draft pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradjock Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 i dont think teams will trade now...usually they wait to see what guys get cut and go from there. nobody wants to give up a draft pick Agreed. Not to mention, we keep hearing about teams who are all of a sudden desperate for a running back because of injuries (Detroit, Arizona, Texans). About the time we traded Taylor, Forte would likely blow something . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azbearsfan Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Guys, no one is giving up a 4th or 5th rounder for this trash. If we would be able to get a 7th rounder, it would be magic. I would assume the cards just wait to see who gets cut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume the cards just wait to see who gets cut It would probably be one of those great conditional draft picks we would get in compensation, you know the conditional picks that we never seem to get anything from because the player traded craps out and gets released. How many times has that happened??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balta1701-A Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 "Everybody's going to talk,'' he said. "(But) it's all about your play on the field.'' Taylor's play last season is a big reason why he has been the target of so much criticism. The Bears signed the former Viking to a four-year, $12 million contract that included $7 million last season with hopes he would be the perfect complement to Matt Forte, and possibly challenge Forte for the starting role. Instead, Taylor responded with a dismal 2.4 yards per carry in 112 attempts. During the offseason, general manager Jerry Angelo said the team had no immediate plans to cut ties with Taylor based on the money already spent, but Angelo also cautioned that no one's job was safe. Based on what offensive coordinator Mike Martz said last week, one would think Taylor's had job security. "Chester is having a heck of a camp,'' Martz said. "He has lost some weight. He's in great shape.'' In reality, the Bears aren't going to pay Taylor $1.25 million this season to sit the bench. The addition of Marion Barber as the short-yardage back immediately knocked Taylor down in the rotation. Plus Kahlil Bell's eye-opening performance in the exhibition opener against the Bills only left more doubt about Taylor's status. Not to mention Bell plays special teams and Taylor doesn't. The Bears kept four running backs last season after Bell and Garrett Wolfe both made the cut. But a guy like fullback Eddie Williams or rookie receiver Dane Sanzenbacher could take a roster spot from the running back group this season. Taylor might improve his prospects Monday night in New York, provided he gets the opportunities. He played just six snaps last week. "The coaches are going to make their decisions and the evaluations,'' Taylor said, "so I'm just going to come out here and keep playing.''

AZ54 Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 It is about how you play on the field and the Cardinals do not have to give up a draft pick, not even a conditional one, to find a RB who can average 2.4ypc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
