Crystal ball career projection...
Rookie Year: Makes the team and we see him a lot in pre-season but he is a role player on special teams and we do not hear his name much.
Second Year: Still special teams for the most part. Starts seeing some reps at slot.
Third Year: We are beginning to see articles praising his work ethic and leadership. He cracks the receiver rotation and becomes a 3rd down clutch receiver.
Fourth Year: Clear starter. Surprises many when he is named to his first Pro Bowl.
Fifth Year: Lots of name recognition. Performs up to it. Pro Bowl #2.
Sixth Year: They start selling "Carr" jerseys in Boston.
I will leave you hanging on whether he makes the third Pro Bowl and cracks the 2.5 over.

Carr was not exactly himself post-vicious cheap shot concussion in the MN game. Would he have been drafted but for the criminal hit? I tend to think so. Let's hope he's fully recovered and reaches his fullest potential in the NFL.
He'll be a great replacement for Edelman - only much more intelligent & classier.
Austin Carr was a revelation. He'll be fascinating to follow in the real world, NFL career or not. Can't wait to see what he does

He's everything that's right about Northwestern and college football in general!
I think he becomes the first guy elected to the NFL HOF while still active. He then gets bored and goes to Arena Ball and scores 10 TDs in one game.
He will become the first person who does not drink to do Dos Equis commercials
"I don't drink, but if I did, I'd drink Dos Equis"......
Happy Cinco de Mayo this week!!

Austin Carr's photo is featured in the Boston Globe article about undrafted free agents for the Patriots. Patriots signed 17 UFA's, kind of like the NFL equivalent of 2-star recruits maybe?

And nice text as well:
Northwestern’s Austin Carr (6-1, 194 pounds), the Big Ten receiver of the year (90 catches, 1,247 yards, 12 touchdowns) also signed on with the Patriots. The former walk-on has very strong and reliable hands.
