Bradley Sowell and Paul Fanaika have been working with the first-team offense at right tackle and right guard, respectively, in the early parts of offseason workouts.

Sowell's competition will be Bobby Massie, while Fanaika will battle it out with Earl Watford this summer. Sowell pitched in at left tackle last season but was PFF's worst-rated tackle. Jared Veldheer was signed as a free agent to man the left side. Fanaika started all 16 games but was blown up both as a run and pass blocker.

Coach Bruce Arians doesn't see left tackle as the Cardinals' "most glaring need."

Well, we do. And so does just about everyone else. "Bradley (Sowell) played OK, and he's going to get better with another year of strength and conditioning," Arians said. "It's not the most glaring need." Sowell appeared in 12 games at left tackle for the Cardinals and graded out as Pro Football Focus' worst tackle in 2013. Arizona is going to address the position either via free agency or the draft. Free agent Branden Albert has already been linked to the Cardinals.

Bradley Sowell is expected to step in as the Cardinals new left tackle.

Cardinals claimed OT Bradley Sowell off waivers from the Colts.

Sowell is a second-year undrafted free agent out of Ole Miss. The Colts signed him off the Buccaneers' practice squad in September of last season. New Cardinals coach Bruce Arians is familiar with Sowell from their time in Indy.
