Beanie Wells is a hell of a player when given adequate blocking. He's well liked in the locker room and has the desire to be lead back.
If he decided to test free agency sometime soon.
His 2013 contract is a team option; worst case scenario he's a free agent at age 25.
Think he could catch on with another team and spark his career? Seems like a guy the Bengals would love to have carry the ball 20+ a game.
Or be in a committee, he's pretty decent at finding the endzone.
A change of scenery for Beanie Wells seems much needed.
I would assume the club picks up his contract for one more year but I hope the Cardinals plan on drafting a running back with an early pick.
I'm not familiar with the runningbacks from this draft class but of the Cardinals pick on the Top 10 they need to consider drafting a workhorse who can dominate games while they figure out the fiasco at Quarterback.
Kevin Kolb + Elite RB + Quality Defense = Cardinals will win games.
(oh, hi houston)

Guy has always been overrated. Not that good and doesn't have the right frame to match his running style. Too thin in the lower body for a guy who runs hard and isn't great at avoiding contact. Like Murray and McFadden, he will always be getting "unlucky" injuries because of this. Nothing to see here. Pass him off to one of his true believers if they still exist.
Always overvalued. Even when healthy, he's been utterly mediocre, at 54 total YFS per game and under 4 YPC. He couldn't even beat out Tim Hightower, so any 2nd day rookie or cheap FA will represent a major threat to his touches, whether Ryan Williams turns out decent or not. And whether Whiz stays or goes, I have zero faith in AZ ownership to run that franchise competently.
