I've heard it helps you catch balls in stride. Any value to taking it beyond the mid 30s?

I haven't heard the part about it helping you catch balls in stride.
What Bort's said is that it helps prevent fumbles and it helps prevent defenders from knocking it out of your hands just after a catch.
After you have 6-7 of your attributes capped (or 2nd, 3rd, 4th capped for some) you might want to work on bringing it up some. Mine's in the mid 30s, and I'm training it up now mostly because training anything else would net me ~12% on Intense.

I personally don't think it does sheet for WR's.... (it should though, you'd think...)
I'd say push ur strength or jumping if you're wanting to get possession more...
*Edit* Sorry-forgot to mention that WR's seem to need more catching this season, 2nd, or 3rd capped seems useful. (then jumping/ strength)

From Bort's comments as well as replays, it is obvious there is a "ball control" check made after a catch. This is what the VA Jackhammer affects and presumably when Carrying plays a larger role.
That being said, WRs have so many important attributes that Carrying can not be ranked high on the priority list.

Saw a Wide reciever and was like that guy sucks it was like level 35 and had 79 speed.
Then I saw carrying. it was 55.
His stats were 2,300 yds recieving with like 16 touchdown..
THe biggest blowout game was 80-47 and that was a 200 yard game for hmi

I just had a 297 yard game with 1 drop in an equal overall game without ever touching carrying.

It is disingenuous to extrapolate from only your best game. Here are that receiver's other games:
1 8 for 197.5 yrds (blowout)
2 8 for 112.0 yrds
3 7 for 79.0 yrds
4 8 for 53.5 yrds
5 4 for 43.0 yrds
6 4 for 59.5 yrds
7 11 for 286.5 yrds (blowout)
8 6 for 172.5 yrds
A good enough season, but certainly not proof that Carrying is unimportant.

Especially when his WR has 61 drops in 7 seasons while mine has 32.
His player has only played one game more than mine.
Moreover I never spent a sp in carrying I went there only by training.
