Re: I'd like to try and get Derek Carr
If he knew for a fact he was going to retire he would have already announced that fact. That leads me to believe he's doing exactly what he said and seriously considering all options, just as he has done each of the past four off-seasons. He very well may end up deciding to retire, but with an extremely team friendly contract already in place for the 2021 season the opportunity to return remains very plausible.

Re: I'd like to try and get Derek Carr
I think Derek Carr has let the Black Hole seep into his brain.
Not sure SP with a team of Psychotherapists or even a Voodoo Priestess could snap him back. |

Re: I'd like to try and get Derek Carr
I listened to the interview. They both said that it has been based upon the date the paperwork is delivered. That has always been my understanding for trades or cuts specifically, but a retirement would fall under the exact same guidelines. What they appeared to be saying is that IF there was a way to screw the Saints over, Goodell would. This is a commonly used rule so I don't think there would be an issue. That said, I'm still not counting Brees as retired until he makes an announcement and I don't think he's made any announcement yet because he hasn't made that decision.

Re: I'd like to try and get Derek Carr
And I think he has made his decision. And I think not announcing it until after June 1 is important.
