I am going to try to cover the defensive planning and outlooks in one thread, particularly in light of how man key pieces for the defense are already in place.
Cardinals’ insider Mike Jurecki attended the Cardinals’ meet and greet media session with the new assistant coaches and he came away with the following info: (1) the Cardinals are going to incorporate aspects of both the 43 and the 34 in their approach and week to week game planning; (2) the coaches are expecting LB Deone Bucannon to be their “green dot” signal caller of the defense; (3) the 3 of their own UFA players they would like to re-sign are DE Kareem Martin, LB Josh Bynes and CB Tramon Williams; (4) all players, especially the likes of Robert Nkemdiche are being give a “clean slate.
