If a guy can't get in shape for a pro day before he's made a cent, what do you expect him to do once he signs his first contract. Massive red flag. Maybe he turns out fine but he's become a really scary prospect. Warren Sapp dropped in a very short amount of time, as well as La'el Collins, Randy Moss and Laremy Tunsil.

GritsPittz Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Not sure whether to be excited or concerned he might drop to us. His game film is dominate and I'd rely on that, but recent events are concerning though. Vandy, Lionzblade and Emmitt 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many stories over the years of exceptional talent wasted by guys that didn't have their mind where it needed to be to be exceptional. The red flags may be something, they may be nothing. I'd pass on him without blinking and let someone else play that risk/reward game. Falconcheff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he turns out fine but he's become a really scary prospect. Agree. Right now Carter is a mental, physical and emotional basket case. Whatever potential and value he has as a pro football player is obliterated right now. He's going to have to pull himself back together and get his life straightened out before he can be worth anything as a football player. GM's just aren't going to know how long it will take him to get that done. At the moment I no longer believe he's a first-round pick. We'll see if he can redeem himself in the time left before the draft. Dirtier Bird, thofin21, duckhoa and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he works his way through this but as a business decision I couldn’t risk it. Maybe day 2 or 3 when risk is lower but no way in the 1st round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g-dawg Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 27 minutes ago, Dark Bird Rising said: It's ok to want someone but you have to pay attention to the signs, the speeding, not working out at the combine, gaining 9 pounds in a short time, not loosing the weight before the pro day, looking bad on the pro day and not doing all the drills on pro day. This is like a serious job interview for millions of dollars, let the buyer beware. hopefully our scouts and coaches dig deeper than our internet GMs. Jalen was not a lockerroom cancer, was well liked by his coaches and teammates - and - outside of his driving - which clearly needs intervention there - he's on balance mostly a good kid. As to the weight and the workout - it's not like he hasn't been in a tough spot the last month - there are circumstances here but by all means, let's ignore his career, his talent and that he is well thought of in the program - and add 2 + 2 and get 8 like the messageboard now in this thread.

This team needs as close to a sure thing in the first two rounds as it can get. Taking a guy whose head may or may not be in the right place. That's an easy one to pass up for me. duckhoa and PokerSteve 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I draft him after #20, wouldn't touch him with the 8th pick. I fear he'll be dead, in jail, or out of the league within 5 years.

kiwifalcon Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Man some of these horror stories you hear about prospects before a draft.You’d think with potentially millions of dollars on the line they’d pull there heads in and just get through the process. Carter dropping in the draft is exactly that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PriMeTiiMe Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 He’s gonna plummet. He was already dealing with character concerns now he shows up to the biggest day of his life looking like a snail through his drills and weighing in as if he just finished an eating contest. Not a good look. red flags are flying high right now. You can have all the talent in the world but if you are a lazy piece of poo no one will care and you will not succeed in the NFL.
