At this point, Glenn will probably be gone. This knee injury doomed him and he won't ever regain his explosiveness. Coupled with his age, the fact that he's not the physical marvel T.O. is and our need for some youth at wideout, hard to see him staying around. I mean, we did play well without him...
What could we realistically expect for Carpenter, a second-day pick? Is that even worth it?
I think interest in Carpenter might surprise us. He's not an inside lber...he's an outside backer, not an every down pass rusher. I think others would look at our 3-4 and understand why Carpenter can't get on the field ahead of Ware, Ellis, and Spencer. If we were in a 4-3, I think only Ware would get on the field ahead of Carpenter at OLB.
I think some 4-3 teams who may have been interested before would also be interested now because they know the guy can play ST, and they have enough information on him...getting Carp now could mean not spending a 3rd or 4th round pick on a LB who may never make the team.
