As the free-agency period continues to unfold (it’s still barely two days old), more and more players are taking visits.
One of them will be defensive end Matt Shaughnessy, who we’re told is on his way to Arizona for a visit with the Cardinals.
Shaughnessy entered the league in 2009 as a third-round pick, started all 16 games last season for the Raiders. At 6-5 and 285 pounds, Shaughnessy can rush the passer and stop the run.
Don’t rule out a short-term deal for Shaughnessy, a prominent role in 2013, and then a return to the market in 2014, for a bigger payday.
