Same goes for Carter. This is why we dont have quality depth, why we have aging players making too much money to cut. You have to get rid of these guys when there best days are behind them, like the Eagles, Patriots seem to do and fill the spots with young guys. Its just the same old crap from the Front Office.

The Patriots let's their star players walk away when they are free agents (Adam V. and Rodney Harrison) and trade them when they are in their prime (Deion Branch). Also bad idea using the Patriots as an example, as they bring old players and make them work (i.e. Junior Seau).
