Most people here have probalby heard of these names (Larry Fitzgerald, Todd Heap, Adrian Wilson, Patrick Peterson and Darnell Dockett) but here are some lesser known names to look out for:
#12 Andre Roberts - WR
Roberts was drafted in the third round a couple of years ago out of The Citadel. Obviously he was very raw coming out of a small program like that. However he really came on late last season and I expect him to have a big season this year. Many people expected the rookie Floyd to be the #2 WR this year, but Roberts has a firm hold on the position.
#58 Daryl Washington - ILB
Washington is entering his thrid season and just signed a 6 year extension with the Cardinals. He is a very fast LB and has good range. He is the young star of the Cardinal LB corp
#87 Jeff King - TE
King was signed from Carolina last year. He is a very talented blocking TE. However he has proven to be a deceptive receiver who is great at finding a hole in the defense. Defenses seem to forget about King and that is when he makes a big reception to keep drives alive
#36 Larod Stephens-Howling - RB / Kick Returner
Think Darren Sproles. Larod is the change of pace back the Cardinals like to bring in on 3 down occasionally. He is hard to find behind the big offensive linemen and has great burst. He is also a special team phenom.
#79 David Carter - DT/DE
Carter was selected in the sixth round last year from UCLA. He rotated in to keep Dan Williams fresh at NT and filled in for Williams when he got hurt late last year. The kid exceed expectations and takes advantage of the playing time he gets.
#51 Paris Lenon - ILB
Paris is a journeyman LB who finally found a home in Arizona. In two seasons he as solidified himself as the leader of the Defense. Not bad for a guy who many thought wouldn't make the roster when he was originally signed. The guy is a student of the game, a workout warrior and the coaches rely on him to run the defense on the field.
