    Kijana cater?

    Carter tore his knee up about 5 times including in his first camp. Please come up with a better example.


    It's easy to find good college RBs who didn't make it in the pros but please give me an example of a college back with that type of anemic performance who made it in the nfl. Can you?

    Starkiller..

    You made a nice case for a back with mediocre college numbers. Problem is that henry's numbers are not even close to mediocre. Are you talking about henry or ware our UFA? Ware would be an example of mediocrity but in henry we are talking about a 2nd rd pick who didn't even crack 3 yards a carry one year in 56 tries!!

    In that same system with that same line bell was much more productive.

  6. There's nothing more I need to say to convince anyone that he deserves a chance. The Titans clearly think he was worth a 2nd round pick, as well as some other teams. We'll just have to wait and see how good he is...

    Starkiller..

    It's not about me giving him a chance and obviously the titans will do just that, it is a matter of debating whether he was a good choice or the best choice.

    I think we can get beyond just saying well, the titans obviously like him so let's shut the hell up about it.. Bad draft decisions have been made by this organization over the last 4 years..

    Yes the guy is 230 lbs of muscle and runs a sub 11 second 40 but we know that isn't always an indication of success.. I hope the guy becomes a star.
