Barron/Carpenter Trade a Done Deal

All it takes is a revelation of sorts.

"Ya know, F this Barbie name.."

First time I heard Barbie, I would have been looking to smack you in the mouth....but thats just me..

Watched some of the '08 Rams/Cowboys game to see what this guy was like; no way am I gonna scour tape of Cowturd games other than vs The Rams...ugh...Anyway,BC was in & out-mostly out- but all the Dallas LBs were getting run over by SJ that glorious day,inc Zach Thomas who, I believe, coined the name Barbie. So there's that. BC did make a nice tackle on SJ at the LOS at about 12:55 to play 1st Q. Also blitzed once (4:40 3Q) & took Cogs back a few yards , shed his block, & got a lick on Bulger who was being sacked.

Didn't see any glaring egs of a lack of physicality on BC's part but Dallas' whole D got spanked that day....
Heheheh

So as the only person on here to go back and actually research Carpenter somewhat thoroughly, how well do you think he will do on the Rams?

Dunno. As I said, I watched very little tape on the guy.One game from two years ago is hardly exhaustive. And I'm not really used to watching a 3/4 D so whether he was assignment-sound on any given play is hard to discern.

I do think the knocks on the guy are probably exaggerated; 40+ combined tackles, 2 sacks, and a pass defended are reasonable numbers for a guy who only saw spot duty. Clearly, he defeated/shed SOME blocks and made some tackles.Never saw him whiff or get blown up but he didn't blow anyone up, either.

Well that's really good to hear. I'm glad you didn't see anything terrible.
And I wasn't expecting Carpenter to be anymore of a thumper than Laurinaitis. Its seems that Ohio State LB's are technically sound and intelligent players. Not thumper thugs like USC produces.

The Bucks have had some big hitters in the past...
