Edgerrin James wasted no time in free agency, signing a four-year, $30 M contract with the Arizona Cardinals.
“It’s a great situation. All they really need is a back,” James said at a news conference. “They’ve got an MVP quarterback (Kurt Warner), they’ve got two Pro Bowl receivers. They got a back and they’re going to shore up the offensive line.”
Then he added, “OK it’s a risk. But hey, I’m a poker player. You can take it to the river. I’m not scared to make a change. I’m not scared to go out on a limb and try something different.”
This signing continues Denny Green’s makeover of the Arizona offense. He now has the great back to go with his two talented wide receivers, Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin. It’s unclear whether or not the Colts intend to go with Dominic Rhodes as their starter or if they have another guy in mind.
