No David Carr for those interested

After thorough evaluations, the Texans have reportedly decided to pick up David Carr's $8 million contract option.

The progress and talent Carr showed in years two and three of his career haven't evaporated. Why start over? With an offensive-minded coach like Denver's Gary Kubiak heading to Houston, Carr is likely to be atop our QB 'sleepers' next year.

With a good oline Carr is more than talented enough to get the job done.....oh well scratch another one off the list.

Carr will be like a better Jake Plummer.

The problem I'd have with Carr were he here is he makes 8 million, is basically a 5th year rookie because he has been able toshow so little behind a line which was even worse than what we fielded after injuries and with a good year is gonna actually expect a raise, lol.

Were I Houston I would ask Carr to renegotiate for 2 or 3 years at about 5 to 6 mil per or I would have passed on the option and moved on.
