And beyond the obvious point that there will always be exceptions, I'd like to point out that Burfict was a highly regarded player in college. First round pick for most of the off season. But he had a character based issue that made people not want to deal with him.

Carter has been in the league for 4 years, has not caught on anywhere and was not a highly regarded player coming out of college that fell for other reasons.

the two situations have, almost, nothing to do with each other.

I was merely trying to provide some optimism for him. 

Carter has played 3-4 LB in his NFL career.  What if he is what the Bengals were hoping for in Moch?   As far as not being a highly regarded college player goes, any player that has 11 sacks and 17 tfl in his final season has to have something going for them.  He was drafted in Rd 5 by putzburg.  A former college DE, he is being asked to learn a completely different position.  I would love to see him catch on as a backup SAM here and be able to provide some much needed rush on the edge for passing downs.
