Arizona Cardinals training camp: Three major questions
3. Are there enough weapons in the passing game?
One other area of concern I have for the Cardinals this year is their weaponry in the passing game.

Obviously, David Johnson will eat up a ton of targets, so that takes away the need for a high-targeted third receiver within the offense, but what happens if the Cardinals have to sustain an injury to Larry Fitzgerald or John Brown?
Not to mention the fact that Brown showed a major regression last season, and Fitzgerald just isn’t a 150-plus target type of player at his age anymore.
I don’t know where the additional options in the passing game will come from, but someone’s going to have to step up for the Cardinals. They drafted Chad Williams in the third round and have some other guys that have shown flashes, but this was an area that lacked nothing two years ago and now looks like an area of major weakness.
