Trade Candidates:

• WR DeAndre Hopkins —- wants new contract with over $50M on new g-ted money and wants out of Arizona.
• T D.J. Humphries —-Josh Jones had the highest PFF grade of every player on the offense this past season at 75.8. His 74.0 run blocking grade was highest on the team. D.J.’s run blocking grade was 57.5. Keeping Josh Jones at LT is imperative. If D.J. protests being asked to move to RT, then the Cardinals should try to facilitate a trade that would send D.J., to a tackle needy team.
