CB depth.....Ahmad Carroll is available
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2611948 Ahmad Carroll was released today. Im thinking he wouldnt be a bad guy to look at. I mean Rumph wasnt as good with S.F as he is doing here. Plus we are hurting for depth. Mods if this needs to be moved go for it.

Mike Rumph and Ahmad Carroll must be living identical lives...
One 'overated" CB acquisition is enough for this franchise. |

it depends upon the situation.. i sure would think that working him out would be a no lose situation.. depending upon how springs is coming along..

Wasn't Ahmad Carroll the guy whose coaches asked him to practice with boxing gloves on the field because he ALWAYS made contact with the WR before the ball arrived?
Or was that Rumph?
Or both?

the other question is how physical he is.. that is an absolute prerequisite.. i do not know enough about carroll to say whether he fits what williams wants. for sure he has to be willing to come up and hit on run support

Ahmad Carroll
5'10" 190# University of Arkansas
Picked 1st round, #25 overall, by the Green Bay Packers in April 2004.
Games Played: 34
Career Sacks: 3
Career Ints: 3 (38 yards)
Career PD: 21
Career Tackles: 95 (89 solo)
Fumbles recovered: 4
21 kicks returned for 421 yards (20 yard avg.)
Combine Timed 4.34 40-yard dash, 10'8" broad jump, 41" vertical leap
10.38 100-meters at the AAU Nationals.
We would be foolish not to have him in for a look. The Packers have no pass rush and crappy coaching. Anyone could look pretty bad in those circumstances.

GW should give him an interview, with a full polygraph test!

He got destroyed last night but they are giving up on him kind of early. It seems they could have got something in a trade for him. I guess the new coach is trying to send a message.

Right! Carlos Rogers better be glad he doesnt play in Green Bay. In all honesty he probably couldnt do any worse than Wright. Id say he has more upside than Wright. |

Exactly. I would much prefer to keep Jimoh over getting Carroll. In fact, I'd rather get Carroll O'Conner than him. Or Jimmy Conners for that matter. Or Jimmy Carter. Or Andre Carter... oops.
