The Arizona Cardinals have a long history, being one of the oldest teams in the NFL. Most of that includes very little success. However, while the last decade has seen its share of lows with the Cardinals, it also has some of the team’s greatest successes.
AZCentral Sports’ list of the top 100 players in franchise history reflects this.
Of the 100, 19 have played for the Cardinals in the last 10 years. In fact, four of the top 20, six of the top 30 and nine of the top 50 have played for the team in the last decade:
- Larry Fitzgerald, No. 1
- Kurt Warner, No. 14
- Patrick Peterson, No. 15
- Anquan Boldin, No. 20
- Adrian Wilson, No. 21
- Karlos Dansby, No. 30
- Carson Palmer, No. 33
- Calais Campbell, No. 37
- Darnell Dockett, No. 43
- Bertrand Berry, No. 52
- Chandler Jones, No. 53
- David Johnson, No. 56
- Lyle Sendlein, No. 66
- Tyrann Mathieu, No. 67
- Neil Rackers, No. 80
- Antrel Rolle, No. 85
- Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, No. 87
- Reggie Wells, No. 95
- Daryl Washington, No. 99
More impressive is that four players in the top 100 of all time are currently on the roster.
The last 10 years have not been perfect and there have been some very bad seasons, but the talent level on the roster has never been better.
