told ESPN<\/a>. “It’s because the demand will highly outweigh the quality of supply in this year’s class.”<\/p>\nSupply and demand has been perhaps the biggest argument against taking Simpson this offseason, as the Cardinals had very little options in free agency to find a suitable (and immediate) replacement for Murray.<\/p>\n

Simpson, after Fernando Mendoza, projects as the best fit for the Cardinals thanks to his mobility and ability to process defenses pre\/post-snap – which does fit what Mike LaFleur wants to do offensively.<\/p>\n
More from his ESPN profile:<\/p>\n
“There isn’t a throw that Simpson feels that he’s incapable of making, as his toughness and confidence shined in spurts. The son of longtime UT-Martin head coach Jason Simpson Ty’s football smarts and awareness are easy to see. Simpson was given a lot of pre-snap autonomy and was frequently seen altering protections and plays. His recognition of defenses is well beyond a typical QB prospect with 15 career starts.”<\/p>\n
Would Arizona make a move for Simpson?<\/p>\n

The 15 career starts is concerning, especially considering Simpson’s play took a drop as the season went on. However, there is some upside to Simpson’s game that the Cardinals will have to debate over these next few weeks.<\/p>\n
