It was a mistake letting him go. However many millions under the cap we are. We could have easily picked up his contract. This is a passing league and another good corner would have kept Julio Jones from dominated us today.
First time I am saying this since Pioli came on... Poor job letting him go.

Part of it has to be that you can not pay your #2 CB more than your #1, who just got his extension that season.

The Cowboys were desperate for starting CBs They were going to get him.

I think the best chance Pioli had of keeping him would have been prior to the season's end. But my gut tells me that Carr was fully aware that he was going to get a better deal than Flowers.if he hit the market.

I would have liked to have seen Bowe get a long-term deal, allowing us to tag Carr. But it.seemed like guesswork as to which would be easier to get into a deal.

Anyways, it's a bit early, but I'm already planning next years vacation so who cares. Maybe draft a corner in round 1 or 2 next year

should have drafted corners this years draft. Draft a qb next year first round.

From what I have heard from local media, and given that is the source. Carr had decided before last year that he was not going sign any contract with the Chiefs until he tested Free Agency. Once Flowers got his contract, he knew he was not going to get that money from the Chiefs and didn't even give the Chiefs a chance to resign, as he wanted to go to south and to a team that played more Man to man.

But hey.... We only have 10 DBs on the active roster. Maybe the.coaching staff missed on who they wanted here?

But seriously...... What kind of question is that?

Sure.... His job is to get the talent on the roster, and our backup CB looked terrible yesterday.

If you think that costs a GM his job, then good luck continuing to root for crashing the team to start all over yet again.

Myself, I would prefer to see the team we have now succeed, as opposed to praying for them to fail bad enough to get everybody fired so we can go.back to looking for the top draft pick.
