Kliff Notes:
- The Hopkins trade is a fait accompli: “ I have no doubts it will be done before the draft.”
- Kingsbury offered high praise for A.Q. Shipley: “the way he led that (“college offense, if you will”) and bought into the tempo and different things we were doing, I couldn’t have been more impressed with him.” However, if the team had made re-signing him a priority, Shipley would have been signed by now. A guess is that the Cardinals want to wait until after the draft to, as Kingsbury said, “see where that (“work in progress”) goes.
