C'mon now, does Carson really deserved to be lumped in with Kijana, Klinger, and Akili?
The guy was widely considered a top 5 QB in '05, '06, and '07.
He's #14 ALL TIME in passing yards.
He's # 13 ALL TIME in passing touchdowns.
He made multiple Pro Bowls, finished with a winning record as a starter, despite stops in Cincinnati and Oakland, and played in an NFC Championship game
At the age of 36 he did the following: 4,671 yards, 35 TD's, 11 INT's, 104.6 QB rating, and lead his team to a league best 13-3 record.
I'm sorry, you just can't shove his name in the middle of those names, even if he didn't leave on the best of terms. He had a fantastic 14 year career, and gave this town a well above average 7 seasons.
You could have went with Reinard Wilson, John Copeland, Chris Perry, David Pollack, Ogbehui, etc.
Sorry if I sound like the Carson police here, but I try to stick up for this dude as much as I can. He is nowhere near an expample of a pick that didn't work out.
