Which five free agents should the Arizona Cardinals try to sign during the 2015 NFL offseason?

The Arizona Cardinals were one of the best teams in the NFL for the majority of the 2014 season, but ran into some bad injury luck late in the year. Starting quarterback Carson Palmer went down with a torn ACL, and then backup quarterback Drew Stanton also went down with a knee injury soon after.

Those injuries left the Cardinals with Ryan Lindley as their starting quarterback, and that didn’t work out very well against the Carolina Panthers in the playoffs.

Bruce Arians and the Cardinals believe that they can be one of the league’s best teams once again in 2015. They have a few holes on the roster that they’ll need to fill to reach that goal, but there is no question that they are capable of doing it. Arizona is a very attractive landing spot for free agents, and they will be playoff contenders.

It is going to be a very hectic offseason with quite a bit of player movement, and there are quite a few big names available on the market as well. The NFL offseason is always an entertaining time for fans with rumors and news coming out all the time, and that has been the case already this year.

Arizona will have $21.1 million in cap room to work with assuming things stay as they are right now. That is enough money to make a few sizable moves, and it will be intriguing to see what they end up doing.

Which five free agents should the Cardinals target when free agency opens up on Tuesday?
