Duron Carter visiting Wednesday

[Mr. Scot]

Gettleman once signed Plaxico Burress, i.e. tall and physical but not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Can he learn to football? If so I am interested. 

 

Does he having any vices? Drugs/alchohol? Or just doesn't like school? 

 

Let's be clear about this, talent is fine, redemption is fine. But this coaching staff and organization need to be willing to take on his baggage and help him get over it. Dez Bryant has prospered because Jerry Jones would not let him fail. We need that attitude.

[KendrickPanther]

There is a famous personnel guy in the CFL from Charlotte. Does he have any ties to Duron?

[Mr. Scot]

He's actually stated that he'd prefer to sign with the Vikings or the Colts.

 

Maybe that just means he hasn't seen our pitch yet, but still...

Jim Popp, and I think he was Carter's GM.

Played against him in high school. I'm old.

Couldn't hurt if Popp recommends our city.

My guess is he goes to the Vikings if they want to sign him. From what i've been reading about him, the baggage he brings to a team is greater than his skill set. A buyer beware type of player.

[Mr. Scot]

I guess I'm indifferent on the idea.

I'm sure he has ties to Minnesota still. That organization rehabbed his fathers career. Not sure it would be good for him to live in his fathers shadow.

 

Every receiver wants to play in Indy, they throw the ball so damned much your bound to get some numbers. That's how we missed out on Nicks.

[Proudiddy]

Who cares? Sure, sign him and see what he can do. But, you don't think every NFL team out there was keeping tabs on an all-time great's son? If he was that great he wouldn't have been allowed to wash out at 3 different schools. Then he's been in Canada since giving up on college. No team drafted him in the regular draft or the supplemental... That says something. He's a free agent for a reason.

I wish Gettleman would stop trying to dig up diamonds in the rough when he passes over so many on the surface in the process. Yes, some of it is due diligence, but I hope this isn't similar to his plan for the OL and WRs going into this season.

[TheSpecial1]

He should sign here.  With our lack of receiver, he would have the best chance of making the roster and getting playing time. 

 

That's exactly what his agent will tell him.
