I really wanted him in a later round the other year

"NFL COMPARISON

David Amerson

BOTTOM LINE

Physical cornerback who's at his best when he's able to see the play develop in front of him rather than having to lock down a target as a man-to-man cover corner. Carter's ability to tackle and play the ball in space should interest zone defenses, but a transition to safety might make sense if he can carry a bit more weight."

Well damn! Another one bites the dust!

Edit: Okay, I fuged up. I thought that said "zero" defenses. I hope that it's not an omen.

Another depth player with the comp of Amerson should be fine. Nothing to get excited over.

Looked up his history. The longest he's lasted in his last four stints is about a month, and that's only been on practice squads.

Anybody still available at this time of year is probably a camp body or past their prime, so I wouldn't put too many expectations on him.

Our secondary is becoming to remind me of last year.  And that not a good feeling. Gualden and Jackson need to perform.  

Gaulden and Jackson are our only real options at the moment. Kinda scary, but Eric Washington seems to have genuine confidence in them.

Gotta remember though that, going into the Bills game, Washington and Rivera had genuine confidence in Kevon Seymour.

I was one of the first to criticize Seymour Thursday night.

But I want to see what he does this next game now.

Now that it came out that his wife gave birth the next day.  You know his head was elsewhere and not in Buffalo Thursday night

Other than Eric Reid.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
