Market value is your opinion. The jets courted him but that they were a serious suitor is your opinion. I never argued over the timing of his signing. And I never knew the chipotle thing until this year. I’m sure he initially wanted to be here. But in my opinion, he never loved it here. He didn’t fall in love with the fan base or culture. I don’t blame him, he loved the raiders and they broke his heart. I got the sense he was more guarded this time around. I don’t even think he should have loved it here. The transition away from Brees and Payton was botched. It wasn’t a good time to be the QB of the Saints.
Not a big deal to me. I don’t feel the need to go to bat defending the honor of Derek Carr. He will be an insignificant part of this team’s history in the long run. I hope he and his family are happy and healthy, which with his earnings, I’m sure they are.
