Positives - Carr showed a little bit of what he can do last year. The Texans offensive line has improved and Carr has gotten more and more confidence. Andre Johnson is a star in the making, and the two will feed off each other. Dom Davis and the running game continue to improve and take heat off of Carr. Davis also provides a good dump off option.

Negatives - Carr really hasn’t shown that he can be a consistent quarterback. He’s averaged more interceptions than touchdowns so far in his career, and doesn’t have many options outside Johnson and Davis to throw to.

Draft Strategy - Needed a QB to go with Favre and I figured if I can grab a QB from the middle tier of QBs, I could skate by with only having two on the roster. Carr will complement Favre well, as his inconsistency doesn’t hurt as much in a survivor league. Was thinking either Leftwich or Carr here, and Teumessian Fox made the choice easy.
