The Fins have released Carpenter. He's only 27, and played well in relief in Dallas.
The Dolphins cut him after 5 games due to errors on ST's.

There is a reason his nickname is "Barbie" Carpenter.

I say put a claim on the guy we need better athletes. I know he is not the answer but he would be better than some of the people we have back there.

You can't tell me he is worse than Ellison. Sign him up.

We already have Ayodele and Torbor. Why not?

I'm thinking the bills will pass on the guy and would give Moats the snaps instead.

Never going to happen. This guy is decent at his position and sucks at S/T. We only sign guys who suck at their position and are decent at S/T.

I don't think that's necessarily true under this regime. Unfortunately, most of our guys suck at both.

Get him. Would be a decent addition.

How many teams have now found him to not be good enough? Seems to me that any 'upgrade' with him is likely to be very marginal, and possibly not worth the trouble.

Just dont see what he brings us in terms of added mistakes that we dont already have from Ellison and Moats?

He brings size to the ILB position and is a better athlete than Akin.

If they do they do but at this point the guy was a first rounder it would not cost anything and we could try him out for a couple of weeks and see if he has anything.

Ellison will not be here next year anyway.

Parcells/Ireland drafted him in the first round in Dallas. Bad sign that they gave up on him after 5 games in Miami. TD would pick him up, he's one more of the overrated white guys he loved to collect when he was here.

I think he would fit best as an OLB in a cover 2 scheme where he can run around and use his athleticism and just react. He is not good in a 3-4 because he is not physical enough.
