It's worth noting that we didn't get a 5th for him, we got a 6th while also giving up a 7th. So really a negligible move up late in the draft.

I just don't care. Worrying about this specific issue feels like complaining about a squeaky door hinge in a house that's literally burning to the ground.

We trade the league leader in tackles for a 5th rounder! Our linebacker corps is paper thin, I like Fritterer but this is just bad. Denzel is a real thumper he’s not a great coverage LB but he is a damn good run defender and doesn’t bounce off RB’s like Carter.

Others have already hit on reasons. Ill add a few;

Just a bad fit, right or wrong its best you move on. Member his speeding ticket deal at TC, told the reporters "hey guize got this 90 MPH ticket, why is that//"

Our big brain coaching staff pick Carter over Perryman..........fuging idiots. They should have seen the talent difference and figured out how to make it work.

Perryman had an injury and has a bad injury history. Panthers had enough of that with Apple and right or wrong they moved on..

Perryman didint get the vaccine, regardless your benefits and knowledge on this hot topic. He was one of three form the whole team that didnt get it. Different rules and treatment for non-vaccine players.  right or wrong they moved on.

He landed with a perfect DC that knows how to use his strengths.....WOW thats how coaching is done, amazing. They knew one another cause Gus was his DC in San Diego. He pushed for the trade cause he knew the results would benefit raiders

Our poo staff for sure screwed this up by thinking Carter was better, not mending the problems and figuring out how to make it work. So Scott finesser had to trade him and at least got something for him since the bridge was ash. Dead cap space too......

Tackles =/= Good

Remember Eric Reid and his tons and tons of tackles?

He was soooooooo good with all those tackles.

/s

 

Either way, Rhule didn't want him so he got traded. 

I mean Eric Reid was a safety, but understand your point.

I said that after we traded him, I got called out. But yes we shouldn’t have traded him.

Shouldn’t have traded a dude solely for vaccine purposes. Nothing like watching Jermaine Carter trip over other players trying to get to Pitts on 3rd and 11.  Love his “leadership” too. Jermaine Carter just adds so much to this team… why would we want a guy that just lays wood and is everywhere? Oh yeah, vaccine, he’s the devil, that’s right. Sigh.

I’m beginning to think he wasn’t toxic in the locker room. I’m beginning to think he saw through Rhule and Rhule didnt like that. 

I think you're just trying to cram something into a narrative. 

He was with the same coaching staff and players that have created one of the better defenses in the nfl this year, and one of the best of all time after the first three weeks.

    • Could do better could do worse. I've seen some people very indignant over bringing him back and I can absolutely relate to the sentiment. But it's just in a backup role. He's also a good locker room presence and an effort player so for a 1 year rental in a year where we aren't going to do much it's fine. This is a development year. And there will be options if need be at the trade deadline. Besides at the end of the day we all knew a signing like this was around the corner after how drafting Mark Williams ended. He should have been our franchise center for the next several years. I don’t put that failure on the Hornets.
    • No one is upset.  And what I referred has been happening.   Patrick Mahomes has an offseason basketball clause in his contract.  A ton of other physical activites like jet skiing, baseball and all sorts of physical activities are written into his contract.  XL likely already has ATVs and stuff written into his contact.  League already has been inserting a lot of that stuff into basic contracts for non-top tier players and we have seen it pan out.  
    • A payment for future production, puts him a cane for 9 seasons.
