The Arizona Cardinals already have made one move before the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday, acquiring receiver Robbie Anderson from the Carolina Panthers for a pair of late-round draft picks.
Could they make more moves before the deadline?
While the team is not reported to be in any active trade talks, coach Kliff Kingsbury believes it is certainly an option.
“It wouldn’t surprise me,” he told reporters Friday after practice. “There’s a lot of really good players out there and I’ll bet there’s a ton of movement over the next few days. I wouldn’t be surprised if we got in on something.”
Of course, he would not have said if the team were in trade talks or if there were a particular player they are targeting. He can’t do that. But based on the track record of general manager Steve Keim and his willingness to make trades, whether in the offseason or during the season, it really shouldn’t surprise anyone.
Will a deal happen? That we won’t know until one happens or the deadline passes.
If a deal does occur, it shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone.
