I largely agree, but you have to look for every opportunity to improve your roster. If a guy is available for practically nothing who is better than the worst guy currently on your roster at that position then you shouldn't neglect to make that move simply because it doesn't address your biggest roster issues. You have to get better where you can when you can taking advantage of current opportunities. I mean, it'd be awesome if Trent Williams or Tyreek Hill suddenly became available but that's not reality.

I can't argue that.

I can't say that with surety. I know the line is a huge problem, but even with that, I'm thinking Carter would be an upgrade for next season if nothing else.

One thing is for certain, we have to do something.

He's a JAG who can really catch the ball and run after the catch. That fits what we're trying to do on offense better than anyone we currently have.

Lol. I mean he wouldn't have had any discernable impact even if he did see the field. That isn't a player that is going to move the needle at all. 

This offense is what it is. Dumpster diving isn't gonna do anything.

It's not about this year. It's about trying to build a better roster moving forward. I was hoping he'd end up in Washington honestly. He fits them to a tee. Damn Arizona.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. (He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.

      Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.

      I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
