TEMPE - The Arizona Cardinals hired 19 free agents on Tuesday, including two former Pac-10 standouts and a tight end getting his fourth try at sticking in the NFL.

Fred Brock of Southern Mississippi, Kevin Jordan of UCLA, Ervin Whitehead of Westmar, and Al Smith, who went to the Oakland Raiders' training camp last summer, are wide receivers.

The Cardinals also signed quarterback Mark Butterfield of Stanford, Tom Claro of Holy Cross and Ryan Leahy of Notre Dame, and running backs Clarence Matthews of Northwestern State, David Drew and Cedric Smith.

Drew played for Birmingham of the Canadian Football League last season, and Smith, a fullback, had a tryout with the Washington Redskins.

Jordan holds UCLA's career records for catches (179) and receiving yardage (2,548), and Butterfield passed for 2,533 yards and 19 touchdowns last year at Stanford.
