Re: Time To Move On At Tackle?
Wow! I have been talking about the rarity of decent tackles in the league today and this is very telling. There was only one offensive tackle claimed off waivers out of 1,184 players released yesterday.

Re: Time To Move On At Tackle?
Lets say Carr’s season is a mixed bag and expectations are the Saints may cut him or ask him to take a pay cut. Then supposed that in the 12/15/24 game he sustains an injury that is diagnosed on 12/17 as requiring a surgery with a a 12 week estimated recovery time. If Carr has surgery immediately, spends xmas in a hospital, skips new years and valentines to rehab, and is highly dedicated to his physical therapy with no breaks he still wont get to play any more games during the year, but he may be able to pass a physical by 3/17/25, 12 weeks and 6 days later, in order to allow himself to potentially be cut and lose $30 million. However, if he gets a second opinion, has the procedure on 1/3/25 after holidays with family, and does a lot of physical therapy but takes a few days off for family, he can pass the physical in April before the draft and lock in $30 million guaranteed when he cant be cut on 3/17/25. What would anyone do? This is not a matter of character its a matter of putting family first and making smart decisions. And its part of why Carr and Wilson sat the last few games with their former teams.

Re: Time To Move On At Tackle?
If that didn't happen under Carmichael's putrid playcalling I cannot envision any scenario under which it would happen this season with improved weapons and play design under Kubiak.
