Yeah out of all the edges we are not taking Carter at first, with a questionable shoulder injury…Borgonzi wants to keep his job, first-overall for a IR mid season is prime way to find the door.
So we cut him and get like $10 or $11 million in cap savings. We don’t get any edge anywhere near as good as him for that.
I just don’t get it.
We should keep him & use him right.
Seems like this happened to multiple DL guys, I feel like I’ve seen an unusually high number of articles about DL guys given permission to find a trade.
He’s Bud Dupree. Great contain guy, extremely disciplined setting the edge which is important, but he’s getting paid pass rusher money. And he’s not a pass rusher. He’s overpaid-ish.
He’s a guy you overpay to put you over the top, not a guy you overpay to be your premier guy on the edge. This is just the “we won’t be extending you” confrontation, hopefully we can get some good value for him.

Yes, this is an “I was right” post
