Best Cardinals Linebackers

The best linebacker in Cardinals history is Daryl Washington (2010s), rated 82 out of 100 — just ahead of Seth Joyner and Karlos Dansby. Below, all 12 ranked, spanning 1980s–2020s.

These are all-era rankings with no cutoff year: a Cardinals linebacker from the 1980s is rated on the same scale as one playing today, which is why this list looks different from rankings that only go back to the modern era. The ratings are the same ones that power 17-0, the free game where you draft a roster of all-time greats and sim whether it goes a perfect 17-0 season.
