As stated many times in all the Resign Carr thread. Local media has said time an time again that Carr had NO, ZERO, ZILP interest in resigning with the Chiefs. He was going to test Free agency no matter what. He decided this two years ago when Chiefs tried to resign him, just before Flowers got his contract. After Flowers got his contract he knew what he could get on the open market and was going to get it hopefully for a team in the South and a team that played more Man, as opposed to Zone.
This is why the Chiefs went out and Got Routt before Carr even hit Free Agency because he made his intentions clear to the Chiefs and they knew they could not retain him, so they got the next best CB available.
So continue to ingore REALITY and blame Pioli for Being Egotistical Loser who did go out and got a decent replacement.
He can not help the fact that their plans for depth at CB got hurt with J. Brown and Mckenzie.
He went out and got Depth at Safety with Abrams. He can not help that Lewis got hurt and had to use Abrams.
These Quality 3rd string Guys you want, don't exist. They are either starters or back ups and are usually retained by their other team. Finding quality 3rd stringers is trying to catch lightning in a bottle and the Chiefs brought in a lot of DB's this offseason trying to find that guy. So far they have not found that guy.
Give me someone else who you as the Arm Chair GM would have signed.
