Tyrann Mathieau ...
From yesterday...seems a "resolution" was indeed arrived at! ;)
Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic reports the Cardinals are "making positive strides" in talks to restructure Tyrann Mathieu's contract.
Mathieu was asked to take a pay cut last week, which he understandably balked at, but it seems the sides are working on a compromise. A resolution should come soon as the 25-year-old is due a $5 million roster bonus on Wednesday. Mathieu's play declined somewhat last year while battling injuries but he remains an integral part of the Cardinals' secondary. Mar 13 - 3:36 PM

Somebody is going to pay him something decent, but it won't be Minnesota....unfortunately. Bad timing.

Give it a rest dude. Cousins is our QB.

against the law I think. But whatever floats your boat.
@"Ilovebigtd's" said: another reason why i didnt want cousinsAren't you due over at the Jets' boards, making some all-lower-case allegations that NY is screwing Teddy by not naming him starter?

Not his, apparently. Yet, he's still here....

I think he'd be a great fit there and has the versatility to slide back to safety.@"StickyBun" said: Somebody is going to pay him something decent, but it won't be Minnesota....unfortunately.

I'm not sure we are still in the market for such a high priced FA at this point. My guess is we will sit back for a while, maybe re-sign some of our own guys, and otherwise wait until the money has mostly dried up.

Thought he was more of that hybrid safety like Harrison. Just smaller and not as good.

Thought he was more of that hybrid safety like Harrison. Just smaller and not as good.Wasn't he All Pro a couple of years ago? Either way, this guy can play.

Yes, but my point was that he plays basically where HS is. So not really a position we need to spend more on.
