Leontee Caroo possibly Cut

Postby DynaChee » Fri May 26, 2017 1:32 pm

Reading reports he maybe getting cut -

Personally as a Caroo owner I hope this improves his prospects as it would ve been hard to see him get some run this season with Stills getting signed.

Spent an early 2nd on him.

Are Caroo owners continuing to hold?

It's just talk to get him going. DGB got chances, Agholor keeps getting chances......it's too soon.

Certainly not encouraging though.

Not concerned...yet. Even if he looks to be on the outside there are teams that probably would trade for him that probably have less impressive depth charts
DLF HOF League 16 team PPR
QB: Brees, Bradford, Lock(3.07)
RB: David Johnson, Penny, Sanders(1.07), Montgomery(1.06), Love(2.07) Bernard, MLynch, Morris, TJLogan, Joe Williams, Shaun Wilson
WR: Jeffery,Cooper, Josh Gordon, Dede Westbrook, Cam Meredith, Brice Butler, Chester Rogers, Lockett, Switzer, Malone, Cain (IR)
TE: Gronk, Swaim, Maxx Williams

Fins have quite a collection of WRs in camp, I wouldn't be surprised ... he's obviously failed to impress anyone in Miami..

The team clearly had faith given they traded up for him despite not being bare at the position, and despite some dismissing this as just 'offseason talk', i'm not so sure. The team did pay for Stills to hang around, which is them also talking with dollars. As an owner who drafted him late 2nd last year hoping the talent would shine through I am concerned. They invested and if they move on there is reason to be concerned, not optimistic just because of other depth chart opportunities. The only hope owuld be that it makes him give his head a shake...but when it is mental it isn't always that easy. There is too much against him to just dismiss it.

Given where his value is he is a hold. If he is cut, then signed by another team, I will sell if i can and hedge my investment elsewhere while cutting my losses. That said, why would someone be willing to trade for a guy who was just cut and unproven? You will need a truther to be willing to make that deal, and still get limited capital in return.

Between he and Kevin White last year...looking like some wasted draft capital. Such is the risk many forget at draft time when everyone is a 'stud in waiting'.

I'd still hold, but the leash is getting shorter.

I cut bate in a 10 team (25/27) man roster league after our draft this year. Another owner picked him up but immediately dropped him.

A team that drafted him 1:15 last year cut him and he remains on waivers/free agent list , if he went elsewhere he would garner my interest I suspect but now in miami he seems to be nearly without value.

I'd be concerned. If he was any good or had any intrinsic motivation, he wouldn't need this little blurb to haunt him during practices. Definitely not a guy I'd ever want to own. Try to trade him to someone who still has hope for the guy.

Dropped him at beginning of off season. He's still a FA.

I think this might just go in the pile of guys who aren't necessarily guaranteed anything when their team trades up for them.

He went at 1.07 in one of my leagues last year and it gave me a pause, even in a weaker draft class. Not looking good for him now, but maybe he winds up somewhere as a wr3/4 type. Fantasy wise it is not a positive outlook.

WRs competing for fourth on the depth-chart are generally at risk of getting cut, because that's a fringe roster role.

It's not just talk to 'get him going'. Miami made their pessimism on Carroo clear by re-signing Stills. Words are wind, but words underscored by action are another matter.

Isaiah Ford and Jakeem Grant are very real threats to Carroo for the #4 role. If Carroo emerges from preseason lower on the depth-chart than both of them, he's not just at risk of getting cut, it's the likely bet.

The guy who reached on Carroo in my league gave me unsolicited grief in the middle of our draft because I drafted Braxton Miller late 2nd (exactly his ADP).

Braxton did nothing last year with one of the worst starting QBs in pro football, and he still caught more passes than Leonte. smh
