Thoughts: Martin was a preferred walk-on for the Cards a couple season ago, carrying on the family tradition of Cardinal Athletes to step on the field (Greg Nord/Nate Nord/Rick Nord). Martin was relegated to the practice squad after taking a redshirt and the new staff, after some observation, moved Martin to the other side of the ball and added some depth at the tight end spot.

While we’ve seen Jordan Davis and Marshon Ford step up during the off season, Martin still has three years of eligibility left and the current roster projects a wide open competition in the seasons to come. While slightly undersized Martin may fit the mold for what Satterfield and Holt are both looking for.

Sweet Tweet:

I know I spent some time hyping up Creque a few days ago but, keep that head on a swivel Blanton. Looks like Coach Holt has ‘Air Bud’ ready to take that spot on a moment’s notice.
