Soon-to-be free agents who could help Cardinals in Packers-Cowboys playoff game

The Arizona Cardinals are not in the playoffs but the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers are. Both teams have players who will be free agents in March.

Who are some free agents from this wild card game that could be fits for the Cardinals in a couple of months?

 

Packers G Jon Runyan

 Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

The Cardinals need to address left guard this offseason. Runyan is an upgrade.

Packers CB Keisean Nixon

Dan Powers-USA TODAY Sports

Nixon started 13 games for the Packers this season and had 80 tackles an interception and six pass breakups. He is also one of the most dynamic returners in the league.

Cowboys EDGE Dante Fowler

Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports

Fowler will be 30 next season. He had four sacks this season. He has had as many as 11.5. The Cardinals could use that.

Cowboys EDGE Dorance Armstrong

Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports

Armstrong is 26 years old and had 7.5 sacks this season and 16 over the last two seasons. That doesn’t sound like a lot for this season but it would have led the Cardinals.
