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.

    • As a general optimist who tries to be even handed, I was in the “I have hope” but it’s now gone category.  I acknowledged that the bad games were more frequent than the OK ones which were in turn more frequent than the good ones. I just held out hope that he could put things together and more consistently perform at those mid and higher levels. But I’m off that train now. I think he can probably improve his consistency a bit from where he is, but it’ll never be good enough. He’s on the roster next year because he’s under contract, but I don’t think we should pick up his 5th year option and definitely not extend him. He may start next year too because there genuinely are not as many competent QBs as there are starting spots in the league, so the alternatives are all trash. But we’ve got to get fresh blood in the QB room and find our next starter. 
    • Dalton was signed to a 2 year contract. That's not done just for preseason. Bryce is in year 3. He doesn't need a mentor. He needs a push. Dalton was here to protect Bryce through the remainder of his contract, minus the 5th year. Bryce has been shielded from threat. Plummer was nothing but camp fodder in his 2nd year, terrible to the point he should have been churned in week 2 or 3 of preseason, but we bring him back year 3 and low and behold, he still sucks. No real number 2 or attempt to get one. No rookie QB. Give Bryce everything he needs and keep him comfortable has been the strategy for 2 years hoping to improve on the disaster that was his rookie season.  It's still a disaster. 
    • Canales biggest problem is himself. He cannot figure out what the average Huddler can. We ran the ball to substantially above average success against the 49ers but then continued to call pass play after pass play for a bad QB. The overall fault of the offensive struggling fall far more into Canales lap than even Bryce's. How many times has he continued to do the exact same thing? Go away from something working for unknown reasons?
