I was definitely a fence-sitter on the whole Lawson vs Carpenter debate. I will admit that I just slightly wanted Lawson over Carpenter purely for athletic ability. I do agree that Carpenter was a better fit. The reasons I had difficulty deciding which one I liked more came down to Lawson's freakish athleticism vs Carpenter's attitude and experience at LB.
I do agree that Carpenter's attitude is exactly what our D needs. He's a mean and scrappy SOB that will hit you and hit you and hit you. He's a total team player and plays with serious fire. He's a fiery leader, something we've lacked since Woodson retired. Rest assured, Bobby Carpenter will be the defensive captain by year 2 and will be the heart and soul of the defense. That's just the kind of player, competitor, and person he is. I'm happy as hell to have him on my team.
