Thread: From kffl.com: Vikings work out 2 players, Sign J. carter

It will be fun to see how Carter does in real time, the standard is low for the team this year so I expect him to excel on a relative basis.

Would love to see J Carter getting some quick slants (kinda like the Driver play last week). I think hes going to do well if given the chance. But I also think the first time Childress needs roster space, hes gone. He cleared waivers last time and im sure he would again.

Guys I hate to tell you this but it is not the 1st time he has moved to the active roster and it doesn't mean he will play at wide reciever, he might be going to special teams to take the place of the injured linebacker Jason Glenn who is out for the season.

Might as well throw it to him...we can't do any worse!
And if by some strange chance, we are out of the playoff picture, then I say play the rookies in preparation for next season!!!

I honestly don't know much about JC.

CCthebest, you better hope JC doesn't suck at the Pro level. You have been elevating him all season long. You have put your own head on the block. I hope you are right.

Acu, no my expectations of JC are that similar to the orig JC, the way he has been talked about, he better be the second coming (not "the" JC, but maybe CC)
My expectationare are not based in relative terms but based on all the edification that has gone on around this site in the past few months.

well you never know he might actually catch the ball and then run with it down feild. that would be a novelity.

Hey, we have a history of success with receivers named Carter, let's hope he continues that streak.

I thought McMullen and Bethel played very well against GB hopefully they earned a better job than what they had. I do hope Carter gets his chance to shine and I hope he makes the most of it.

I say down with Travis Taylor and regress Williamson's roll.

??? Down with Travis Taylor? Travis is the leading receiver on this team with the most completions & the most yards.

And odd as it may seem, despite the dropped balls, Williamson is in 2nd.

Glad to see J. Carter might get his shot, but what are you people going to say if he drops balls?

Being labeled the "leading receiver" on the Vikings is like being the smartest kid with down syndrome.

:P

Get that carter goin on the O quickly... he know's the team and i'm sure he can help out, esp get some coverage off T.will as neither BethalJ nor Mullen ever did that.



T.will - M.m(B.j) -------------------------------------------- T.t - (J.c)/M.r


if we did a 4 WR set this would be good depending on where on the field.

in a 3 WR
T.will -- T.t --- J.c

send the TE's short and send the wideouts long.

T.t to float in the center.

now that would open up the field.

DiGiTaL

get some coverage off twill?? its not like they are double teaming him, and y would they with those stone hands he has....
wouldnt open up the field theyd jus sack johnson before he could do anything
