Arizona Cardinals projected starting lineup post-free agent additions
· Yahoo Sports
The Arizona Cardinals have filled a number of needs so far in free agency. They have added a quarterback, a running back, a receiver, two offensive linemen, a defensive lineman, a safety and a long snapper. They brought back a few players, too.
But if the season were to begin today, what would the starting lineup look like?

Cardinals starting offense after first wave of free agency
Quarterback: Jacoby Brissett
They added Gardner Minshew, so it could be a QB battle.
Running back: Tyler Allgeier/James Conner
Allgeier is making more money, is younger and Conner took a pay cut to stay in Arizona. We will see how this plays out.
Wide receiver: Marvin Harrison Jr., Michael Wilson, Kendrick Bourne
Bourne replaces Greg Dortch and Zay Jones
Tight end: Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins
Nothing has changed here. Tip Reiman, once healthy, will factor in, too.
Offensive line: LT Paris Johnson, LG Isaac Seumalo, C Hjalte Froholdt, RG Isaiah Adams, RT Elijah Wilkinson
Releasing Evan Brown made the right guard position seem more clear. Wilkinson could slide over to guard if the Cardinals draft a tackle early.
Cardinals starting defense after free agency
Defensive line: Darius Robinson, Roy Lopez, Walter Nolen
Jonah Williams comes in, but he is depth. Lopez was the guy brought in to start.
Outside linebacker: Josh Sweat, Zaven Collins
There has been no change here.
Inside linebacker: Mack Wilson, Cody Simon
Akeem Davis-Gaither was released, leaving Wilson and Simon to be the guys.
Cornerback: Will Johnson, Sean Murphy-Bunting, Garrett Williams
Williams will miss some of the season coming off an Achilles tear, but this group has some depth with Max Melton, Denzel Burke and Star Thomas also in the mix.
Safety: Budda Baker, Andrew Wingard/Rabbit Taylor-Demerson
We will see whether Taylor-Demerson or Wingard end up the starter.
