You know, I really can't balme him for that. They decided to go in a different direction, which is well within their right. Carr responds by saying I'm going to pick where I go and I'm not going to let you get anything in return for kicking me to the curb. I love it!

Sounds like Carr wants to try to land in the best football situation. I'm honestly not sure he'll best his current contract even on the open market. I'm sure we'll inquire but I'd honestly be looking for him to land somewhere like the Titans or Giants.

Mike Varbel is as good as any HC currently. B O B before he got GM duties was 2x playoffs and i thinks hes still got a winning record. Not the pros, but Nick Saban is the greatest college HC and still going top 4 strong. 

Now the others are petty bad, though Flores was on good path....

I know Vrabel played for Bill Belichik, but did he actually work as a coach under him in NE?

no sense for Carr in letting the Saints trade for him if he intends to sign their when he's released from LV

True.

I have not seen his bio, but I think he interned there (guess)......I believe he was the LB coach at one point....he was a fast mover up the ranks and knows how to build a team. He rebuilt the titans in no time. They are still one of the roughest and toughest teams to play against, its shocking to me given a few are vegans.

Pretty easy to have discussed and worked all that out during the lengthy meetings Carr had with the Saints.

and that way NO doesn't have to give up draft picks and continue to build around him

I hope he doesn't end up in N.O. If he ended up there I wanted it to be via a costly trade, not signing him off the street. They're the hands down favorites in the division if they can pull this off.

can't be that costly since Carr can just reject a trade

I think we make a lot of sense for Carr to want to come here. He makes sense for us as a bridge guy but would he be willing to accept that? Would love to sign him over Sam but still need to draft a QB this year, even if we need to trade up.

This would be a top tier outcome for us. However, I'd prefer we traded back in the first round if the intent is to get a development QB in the draft. This would likely land us with Richardson or McKee.

Just draft a guy
