No. Had we traded down and still attempted to draft him then it would have been a much better pick but at #18 it was a reach. Then again considering our draft thus far it's been nothing but a reach.
I'll be happy with Carpenter depending on his impact. If he can't rush the passer and hold the OL accountable while Ware wrecks havoc, then I'll be happy.
If he's just another OLB ... then I'll be PO'd. LB's are a dime a dozen, and are often of marginal impact.
We've sent LB's to the Pro Bowl found on the 2nd day.
