Looks like everyone is pretty down with Carp's play. He hasn't been in the field much.
Some say it's the quality of our LB's. Some say his inability to beat out a Special Teams player. Others say it's the move from OLB to ILB.
Reviewing the draft tracker,

Several quality players were available around Carp's spot. In retrospect, who do we take instead ... or do we stick with the Carp pick.
Some thoughts:
Manny Lawson (DE)
- playing well in SF. Would have been another tweener to be converted to the LB position. Would he have beaten out Greg Ellis for the starting OLB spot?
Santanio Holmes (WR)
- so much discussion about our lack of depth at WR. Though it may be true, Holmes isn't having a good year. At this point, I'd take Crayton over Holmes. Not just because I'm a Cowboy fan, but from what I've seen.
DeAngelo Williams (RB)
- this kid is lighting it up. But with JJ and MBIII (and Tyson Thomson), would this pick have made sense?
Nick Mangold (C)
- playing great with the Jet's. But how do you justify taking a first round Center with Gurode AND Johnson on board. Gurode's play has nullified any need to draft another Center for several years.
