I'm with ya. It shouldn't be their #1 approach. They need to be trying like hell to sign him now. I'm just saying, what will the situation be like 11 months from now? If he has another AP type year and stays healthy, it will be ugly. No question. However, if he has an off year, gets injured, has a scandal (steroids?) or goodness know what else, the Cardinals may find themselves in a better position than they are now. That isn't a gamble I would want to take but it may be a gamble they have to take...
I have heard rumor that they are having trouble getting ANY offer on the table from either side. Nobody wants to play their hand, for fear of putting themselves in the weaker position. As a rule, the person that makes the first offer, puts himself at a disadvantage in any negotiation (assuming both parties are equally equipped to negotiate). The word is putting terms on the table is the biggest hangup right now. Quite frankly, I find that hard to believe but you never know. This is negotiating at a level most of us can't even begin to comprehend... Maybe that's why we're all so good at it on the internet...
