Chris Carter Over Margus Hunt

Assuming they keep Sims. You never have enough pass rushers, but it does feel like the Hunt experiment has run it's course.

That's how I see it, honestly. Carter isn't an every down player at this point, but we were so bad at getting to the QB last year, that we have to keep him, imo. He can also take some snaps at DE, which is also a plus. I think we have to keep him over Flowers, as Carter can take snaps situationally, whereas Flowers would be the last man off the bench.

Where Carter impacts Hunt, IMO, is the battle for the final DL spot. The fact that both Carter and Hardison can play some at DE makes the Bengals carrying a 5th DE less appealing. With Williams and Sims playing well at DT and Atkins, Peko, Thompson, and Hardison locks for roster, keeping Sims or Williams with the final spot makes a lot more sense. Also, if the Bengals decide to only keep 5 WR's to keep an extra DL, he still may not be out of the woods.
