I agree, they are probably never going to realize the value of what they gave up for him. Having said this, if you were Kingsbury and you did, in fact, want to take Murray as the first overall pick in this years draft, would you keep Rosen around or would you ship him off? Honest question because I realize that there could be two schools of thought there. Keep in mind that Kingsbury will not be saddled with any of the blame for Rosen. That pick happened before he arrived so he has a free hand to basically do whatever he wants there. If it were me, I would not keep Rosen. Regardless of what some say, Rosen doesn't fit Kingsbury's Offense IMO. I don't see the value of keeping him around. I do acknowledge that he could be a player that gains some value if teams get down to it and lose a QB, that is certainly possible, but other then that I just don't see any upside to keeping him.
I don't know what the cards will do but if the price were a 3rd, I would certainly think long and hard about doing that deal if I were Jerry.
That's just my opinion.
As much as I wouldn't blame any team for giving up a #3 pick for Rosen, I can't quite see Arizona settling for that. The Cards got themselves into the mess that they're in and I'm reasonably sure we'll see them doing all they can to recoup their investment. It's really a "sticky wicket" that Kingsbury's predecessors and the rest of the Cards' officials find them selves in, no doubt.
I'll be just as interested as yourself or anyone else, to see how they might manage to extricate themselves from the predicament they find themselves in. Will they elect to take a licking for their miscue or will they try to save face and elect to make him their highly overvalued backup? I'll surely be just as curious as anyone to see the end result of that intriguing tale. Let's see what they choose to require for his rights. We might find out tonight.
