The team released Aaron Glenn (getting nothing in return - he's still in the league by the way) at the end of 2004. That paired with the insane Phillip Buchanon trade was clearly the beginning of the end for a very young franchise. Not even the heroic selection of Mario Williams could possibly save a defense so wounded by perverse personnel decisions.
I would argue that the fiasco that was David Carr is considerably less relevant to the team's retarded development than the idiotic personnel moves that were made on the defensive side of the ball.
