Cardinals | Teammate impressed with Robert Hughes

Arizona Cardinals QB Carson Palmer said he was impressed with how FB Robert Hughes performed during offseason workouts, especially his pass catching skills. ‘I think once you put pads on, he’s 240 pounds and built like a bulldog and I think he’s going to run through people and run over people. But I’ve been very shocked for a guy with his build and his power, how fluid he is running routes and how well he does adjusting to balls and catching balls and in the pass game he’s been really good,’ Palmer said.

Cardinals | Coach likes what he sees from Jonathan Dwyer

Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians said he has been impressed with how RB Jonathan Dwyer looked during offseason workouts. ‘He’s in better shape and he’s running routes and catching the ball better than I remember,’ Arians said. ‘I know he’ll pound you and can really run the football. I know he can pass block. But he caught the ball extremely well. He made some catches in the red zone for us. That was a surprise.’

Saints | Will start negotiations with Jimmy Graham

The New Orleans Saints will now begin contract negotiations with the agent franchise free-agent TE Jimmy Graham, because the two sides were waiting on the ruling on Graham’s grievance before starting contract talks. There appears to be a chance that Graham will not be interested in his franchise tender if the two sides are not able to reach an agreement before the July 15 deadline and could hold out during training camp and possibly the regular season.
