David Carr: A Panther Now

Update: Carr has agreed to a two-year deal with the Panthers, the Rock Hill Herald reports. The top pick overall in the 2002 NFL draft, Carr gives the Panthers a viable backup to starter Jake Delhomme, who struggled at times last season.
Recommendation: With former offensive coordinator Dan Henning out of the Panthers' picture in 2007, Carr could potentially take over the starting job if Delhomme (who still has head coach John Fox's endorsement as the starter) struggles to adjust to the new offensive schemes. With the Texans, Carr took a repeated beating behind a subpar line, but the Panthers are believed to view him as a player who still has plenty of untapped upside, who could could excel with the right team and system. Carr evidently agreed, as he took the backup gig rather than go to a fixer-upper team like Oakland, Detroit or Cleveland, where he would have had a better shot at landing a starting job out of the gate.
