I mean the newest resident of the greater New York metropolitan area.<\/p>\n<p>Carter was a standout outside linebacker for the Georgia Bulldogs before being drafted by the New York Giants. But you wouldn\u2019t know either of those facts from actually watching the NFL Draft or following the official NFL Twitter account.<br \/>\nThe initial problem happened when former Giant Chris Canty was given the assignment of announcing the team\u2019s pick at No. 66. Canty identified Carter correctly but told the world that Carter was from Clemson.<\/p>\n<p>Then, the NFL compounded the problem by tweeting a picture of Carter to announce the pick &#8212; except the photo was of Georgia running back D\u2019Andre Swift, not Carter.<br \/>\nNow, it\u2019s true that Carter and Swift both wore number 7 for the Bulldogs last year, so they\u2019re partly to be blamed for the mix-up.<\/p>\n<p>Still, this is a multi-billion dollar business and the league had months to make sure they didn\u2019t have the wrong photo of Carter.<br \/>\nAs for Canty, at least he didn\u2019t confuse him with the old guy from Cleveland.<\/p>\n<p>Who do you think needs to Tighten Up?
