The Arizona Cardinals have plenty to offer a new quarterback.

That’s one of the things Ken Whisenhunt has said this offseason after the club passed on drafting a quarterback in April. Arizona is in the market for a quarterback when the new league year begins, and it sounds like the Cardinals are preparing to offer plenty for a new quarterback.

Mike Jurecki of XTRA 910 in Phoenix reports that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Kevin Kolb is the passer the Cardinals are poised to pursue. Per Jurecki, the Cardinals are prepared to offer cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie “straight up” for Kolb. Jurecki cites a “source” in his report, and the Eagles are believed to be seeking help at cornerback.

Giving up Rodgers-Cromartie in a trade doesn’t help the Cardinals on defense at all, but they’re going to have to pay if they want Kolb.

Of course this would frustrate the Broncos who were trying to get a second round pick from the Cards for Kyle Orton. That in turn further frustrates their attempts to get into the Andrew Luck Sweepstakes next April. I guess John Elway is just gonna have to tell John Fox to start Brady Quinn so they can lay down the season and get the top pick, LOL.

That is WAY to much to offer to get Kolb. And it cripples what little there D they actually have. Unless they plan on getting into the Nambi sweepstakes. But that is a hell of a gamble.
