So, Duron Carter...
What do you guys know, what do you guys think... does he have a snowballs chance in hell?
On one hand, if he was so damn good... wouldnt he already be in the NFL? On the other, he does have the right bloodlines and likely a good head on his shoulders from having a solid man for a pappy. I dont know jack about him, what do you guys know? |

This is like....the 4th thread on him in the last month.
And for the 4th time, the name on the back of the jersey is more exciting than the player himself.

To be honest - looks like another CFL wannabe. I don't worry about blood lines because it seems like the sons of HOFers never seem to amount to anything.

I had a bad feeling this was a Q, but without the search feature I couldnt be sure... anyway, the early returns are about what I feared... if he's any good whats he doing in Canada.

I don't usually get on the CFL hype train, Jeff Garcia's, and Cameron Wakes don't grow on trees. But this kid could have potential.

Some other catches were pretty nice, but as you say, gotta consider the DB's he's going against... I did notice him repeatedly let too many catches get into his body. |

Lacks explosion. The very first highlight, with the double move, brought back memories of Jon Baldwin's double move. No way NFL DB's wouldn't close on that in a heartbeat.
His hands seem good, but notice that most of the time he never actually attacks the ball, instead letting it fall into his lap. That's how the football gets intercepted. Also, his build is awfully slight. It looks like he barely puts in time in the weight room. He has chicken legs.

Most of his big plays are the result of absolutely terrible DB play. He doesn't look overly fast, and if the field wasn't enormous in the CFL, half of the TDs he scored wouldn't have happened.

Hard to disagree with any of this, but if he wants to eat some Wheaties and show up for camp... the more the merrier.

His physical dimensions are impressive. He shows flashes.
He's also been cut by the Vikings and struggled to find lasting production other than Canada, AKA Weston Dressler. I'm not sure he gets 1/100th of the attention he does if his dad isn't a HOF WR. Worth taking a look? Sure. The solution at WR? Probably not. |
