Why is he still a free agent? By choice or something else? Is he a wash-up or just looking for $$$?
Hook a brotha up?
Just wondering...
Any news on that front? (Or did that ship sail with him signing elsewhere and all of a sudden I look like a total idiot?)
Negotiations are still happening. Hopefully, Seymour leaving might help the team to realize that Carter is more valuable than before. Hopefully, Seymour leaving will help Carter see that he will have a major role in the defense.
I don't want Kevin Carter to have a major role in this defense. Hell, I don't want him on this team. He'd be one of the oldest players in the league.
Yah, but him and Galloway can take the guys out for dinner Thursday's using the senior's discount. Not ALL bad...
I certainly hope so. At this point, he's better than what we're likely going to have to throw together at the position to replace Seymour. As I said in another thread, Belichick has a plan. I highly doubt he trades Seymour if he wasn't confident about at least patching the hole left behind by his trade. Whether he's confident in the committee we have to replace him currently on the roster or he's planning on signing Carter, I don't know. As of right now, I hope it's the latter. But I have been proven wrong by this team before so...
Do you know that for a fact or are you just speculating?Negotiations are still happening.

He's only 35. And he was still plenty good for Tampa last year and Miami the year before. He's certainly not an every down DE..
So, you're thinking run downs only? His age does worry me. I understand he has held up well over time, but sooner or later, he's gonna hit that wall. I'd hate to sign him, and then watch a train wreck.
Green, in his last year, is finally getting some props! I would remind you all that many here were ready to cut or trade Green a few short weeks ago.
