The Cardinals have signed 26-year old QB Derek Anderson.  Anderson played in 8 games for the Browns last season in which he completed 81 of 182 passes (44.5%) for 888 yards with 3 TD passes and 10 INTs (42.1 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 10 times for 8 yards (0.8 ypc) with 2 TD runs last season.  Anderson has now played in 39 games in his NFL career in which he has completed 587 of 1,109 passes (52.9%) for 7,083 yards with 46 TD passes and 45 INTs (69.7 QB Rating).  Anderson has also carried the ball 71 times for 180 yards (2.5 ypc) with 5 TD runs in his career.  Anderson was a Pro Bowler in 2007 with the Browns so he has had some success in the past.  He has a very strong arm and he will benefit from the solid WRs on the Cardinals.  I like this signing for the Cardinals as Anderson will likely push Matt Leinart for the starting job in 2010.
