Why did Miami cut Dan Carpenter?

Please note: this thread was not started in snark.

 

I am genuinely appreciative of the substantive feedback that was provided.

 

If I knew how--or if I had permission--I'd go ahead and close this thread. Nothing left to see. You guys are great.

I think its a good questions actually

 

I think he went through a rough patch.......and frankly we got lucky

As a Big Sky alum, I think he's comfortable kicking in the cold and on artificial turf, two constants if you play ball in that conference.

 

Doesn't like kicking in the heat. Buffalo is probably as ideal as it gets for him.

I live down here in Miami. If I recall correctly, it was mostly about money. They thought the young guy (and lower salary) could do the job.

 

I am glad that they made that decision. Carpenter has been a very good pick up for us - especially with our weather.

He had ended up on injured reserve the year before and was competing in camp with Sturgis - they went with the cheaper option.

 

Looks like the Cardinals and Jets cut him too before the Bills snatched him up.

 

 

I knew he was with the Jets but dont remember the Cardinals bringing him in

 

the best part is the Bills only signed him bc Hopkins got hurt and there was speculation DC would only be with the Bills for a few games...funny how things work out
