You guys are forgetting that Alan Faneca would have had to have WANTED to come here. And put yourselves in his shoes: why would he?

We've invested first and second round picks in talented players and as soon as they're ready, he'd be parked on the bench. If I were in Faneca's shoes, I'd want to go somewhere where I would play for sure and have a chance to rebuild my name if I played well because the parts around me were solid. With that, he can still get a good contract.

This is like Blount spurning us. It's bad for us as a team, but it's a better opportunity for the player.

And those are the breaks!

Great signing by the Cards....I can't believe he signed with a NFC west team....

I don't trust Chilo AT ALL ....I would rather have had Faneca...even if it was for 2 years...and it seems the Cards didn't pay much.

LuLz at the homers in this thread......I will say THANK GOD the Cards didn't get a true replacement for Warner . Doesn't matter that we swept them last year...its not like we blew them out....we struggled on Offense, and Dashon Goldson basically won that second game for us.

No biggie, best friend is a Jets fan and said Faneca was easily their worst OL last year

he does return to former coaches and most likely a similar blocking scheme

Cards had that going for them

As long as Faneca can't throw for 30 TD's it won't really make a difference

not to get off subject but for those pissed, we havent extended players, well maybe they arent ready to be extended.

Good signing by the Cardinals. Alan Faneca is at the same point of his career as Larry Allen was in 2006. He still has at least two years left in the tank.

Faneca plus Lutui means the defensive front seven has to bring their A-game.

Agree

Bring it b*tches!

ya niner fans i wouldnt be upset or suprised by the faneca signing, any former steelers should be destined for arizona cus of the former steeler coaches there, i wouldnt be suprised if big ben ends up there, this year or next

not that we needed Faneca, and he's seriously diminishing as a player... but it pains me to see the rest of the NFC West make moves to improve while we sit around and "resign our guys".... which we haven't done either.

I guess Franklin, Baas & Brooks don't count?

Nope, because we haven't extended them. They are all on one year deals of some sort. He's talking about real extensions, like a new multi year deal for Willis, Davis, Franklin, etc.

Brooks was a 2 year deal, but he's still an experiment.

f**k Lefart and Fannyca

He is 34 and he has started 185 games. That is a whole lot of mileage.
