lol Not the only one.

He did, which some believe that if we sign Johnson, we will go hard at AR15 if we don't trade up for Stroud or Young.

Reich's daughter had zero to do with his hiring and it was purely coincidental that she was hired a week before her dad was. Eason is practice squad material and that's it. He's nowhere near the talent Corral is. He's been cut by the Colts and Seahawks and has been on and off our practice squad. At the time of his signing, we had one QB on the Roster, Corral. So, they resigned him to play along until we get our rookie and once a Vet is signed don't be surprised if we cut him again. Nothing more than fodder.

I bet the confetti will still be falling and we offer Brian Johnson the OC Job.

Agreed, IF Evero was hired as a HC. Capers could move to DC or he could as you say stay as an assistant. If Capers were to be promoted to DC the chances of him jumping to a HC position is highly unlikely. He could end up as our DC for several years and continue to develop his tree.

Great idea. If Fitterer goes all out for this guy when FA starts don't be surprised if Burns gets moved.

Your theory about Eason goes out the window because he was signed to a reserve contract three days prior to Frank Reich being named head coach. There is no way Eason is going to go into camp ahead of Corral. Eason, at best, is camp fodder. Corral has many good traits for an NFL QB. If there is one coach that can bring out the best in him, it's Reich. Corral may be a dark horse heading into Camp behind a Rookie and a Vet but that doesn't mean he's complete out of the picture.

This is probably the only scenario that Carolina gets the #1 pick. Chicago wants either Anderson or Carter and will only trade down low enough to get one or the other. They aren't going to risk losing out on these players going down to anything below #4. Now if Burns would be offered than that satisfies the need and would allow Chicago to go down to #9. That said, Burns is worth two first rounders PERIOD. I would not give any more #1s on top of it and nothing more than day 3 picks. They want Burns as bad as we want our choice of QB. You would be able to use our 2nd round pick (39) to address the HUGE HOLE we just opened up on our D-Line.

I know many of us oldtimers that actually remember when Capers was here. The Panthers had an amazing defense and though Capers was the HC and not the DC, the defense was clearly his. Salt and Pepper, Mills and many other great names in Panther lore. What I truly love about this hire, is who will be here when Evero gets his first HC gig? We have the man that Mentored him. It is like our backup DC. When he goes don't be surprised to see him elevated to DC. This time he won't be grabbing a HC spot but remain our DC until he retires.

You trying to get banned? How could you post something that points to Corral being a good QB. That's blasphemous to our Draft experts that insist these QBs are leaps and bounds better than Corral. Come On Man.

We have a good defense and anytime you can put a quality defense on the field you have a good chance of making the playoffs. That said, Reich has to be 100% certain he can get our rookie to win games in his first season. We all know that isn't an easy task. I think 2023 QB situation is not going to end well regardless of who we draft and when. I just don't see one of these rookies or a career backup coming in and being a difference maker. I hope I am wrong but I'm not betting the store.

Not that the Senior bowl is guage but he was noted for having a good Senior Bowl run. Duggan is one of those guys that is going to fall in the 2nd round and end up being a steal. He just gives me that winner's mentality that some show and some don't.

Most definitely the crime of the decade. From poor o-linemen to mediocre WRs (minus SS) our front office gave him little to no help. The possibilities of his greatness were ruined by Hurney's lack of understanding of how great he was.

The one article I read had him at #10. Two solid seasons at Houston. It's interesting to me what Reich sees in the upcoming prospects. Is there a QB that is being overlooked because he come from a small school or had a bad record last year.

So the Raiders cut him. What if any, do they owe him. What is the cap implication for them?

Good point but this could be the third time just because of who needs QBs. I was expecting Brady to go to LV but when he retired that put LV on the radar for a QB too.

One site I looked at said Hall was nothing more than a future backup or spot starter. I know his age and ACL tear is a factor but Hooker would be a very interesting prospect with Reich.

If Carr makes it to free agency don't be surprised if we are in talks with him. As I have posted before. Reich one three separate occasions tried to get Carr in Indy. I wouldn't be surprised if we made an offer. Raiders Trade Rumors: Can Frank Reich Finally Land Derek Carr? (raiderramble.com)

We all want one of the top 4 QBs in this draft and I hope we end up with one of them. Though, I am not totally convinced any will be the answer we are hoping for. That said, there is a fair chance that we end up without one of these QBs in round 1. I know it is blasphemous to imply we won't, but we need to accept the fact that other teams could offer more than what we are able to or willing to give up for one of these QBs. So, I found a list of QBs that would be 2nd Day QBs and I would image that Reich has to be looking at more than just the top 4. We have Corral that no matter what happens will be in the mix. Quarterback Rankings 2023 NFL Draft (nfldraftbuzz.com) This is an interesting list because it has Richardson who is arguably the 4th QB off the board rated 6th behind Hooker and McGee. Another thing I heard was Duggan had a really good workout at the Senior Bowl. Which QB outside of Young, Stroud, Levis and Richardson would be the best prospect for Reich to work with. I am excited that we have a former QB who works well with QBs.

I hope he has a great year and gets the opportunity to be a HC somewhere in 2024. He's got a good defense there and could easily have a top 5 defense. Of course, if he plays us he gives us the same game plan he gave Cincinnati.

I don't think they will, but some have said Fields isn't the answer. Many love Fields but some, especially those in charge think otherwise. I think they are trying to trade the pick but may pull a surprise even if they move down.

Agreed. My biggest concern really is desperation and panic. If things fall the wrong way for us and we end up trading up in a package that just doesn't make sense. So many teams above us that need QB or willing to trade down with teams that are trying to get ahead of us. I don't like how the 8 teams above us factor in. So many could grab a QB including Chicago.

Shaq is not great but definitely not bad. I think the deciding factor will be. How does he fit our new scheme. If our new DC can use him than keep him, if not, cut him. It's not going to do us any good if he doesn't fit our scheme.

We'll just have to disagree. I just feel that had Corral not been crapped on by Rhule and given a real opportunity to work with other than scrubs he could have showed something. Corral has a leadership quality that is being under appreciated. It would have help us greatly had Corral been given a true look. I do believe that Reich will be working with him and our rookie, if we get one, to bring out the best in them.

We keep saying this. Hopefully, this year will be an actual breakout year for Marshall.
