Why do you think they resigned Rodgers. If Love was any good they would have let Rodgers go, but they know Love sucks.

BC I think will do fine as LT. Freeing up money by restructuring players has to be intended to get some solid offensive linemen in to help. If we somehow land Watson than we are betting on these free agents to be apart of our draft. I seriously doubt we land a starter in round 4. It will be interesting to see what happens.

I was just thinking the same thing. I still think Moore is a better overall receiver than Ridley anyhow. I'd take Moore over and over again.

Ryan to Falcon front office. I think I'll retire now.

I think the original Michael Jordan might have a better chance at blocking someone than this MJ. This turnstile was spinning so fast you couldn't see the bars. He's terrible. I'd rather have Brown and a Free Agent on the depth chart before MJ2

I'm torn both ways on Pickett. I am like you I'd rather trade down get another pick and use it on a QB and IOL.

Feb. 2023 Rhule/Fitterer post season press conference. "We know the line is an issue and it is our #1 priority this off-season to fix it."

This is our best option. You can flip a coin and argue all day on which QB in this draft is better. I think Howell is being underestimated. In 2020 when he had a stellar running game and two top flight WRs and a solid O-line and Howell excelled. 2021 he had none of the above and struggle but that should be all on him. If we fix our line we have a solid running game, good WR and I think he would do well here. If we get a 2nd you address the center and let Brown and another FA to play guard and let BC play LT.

This is a rivalry, the best in college basketball and arguably the best in all sports. You go to Duke or UNC to play in this game. This game is pure pressure. Duke wasn't acting much like they were under pressure. They dominated stretches of the game however, UNC was resilient each time Duke punched Carolina Punched back. Everyone wants to say Duke played poorly but Carolina outlasted them and outplayed them down the stretch. Carolina scored 55 points in the 2nd half. Duke was outplayed and out coached. Duke was the #4 team in the country and Saturday the better team won.

It didn't or won't matter who is under center if we don't fix this line. Free Agents are a quick fix and not 100% (as we have seen) to fix the problem. We have an opportunity to get the LT spot fixed. Do it and be done with it.

I'm all for it. I would like to see Brown in there somewhere but this is cool.

That made the win that much sweeter. They all got to taste the bittersweet taste of an ass whooping again.

In May of 2019, I got un-expectantly released from a contracting job in Iraq. Very painful and I lived off unemployment and my military retirement for 4 1/2 months. I kept plugging and in September of 2019 I got one of the best overseas jobs one can get. My point is, be strong, be confident and remember God won't ever give you more than you can handle. Better times are coming. Good Luck

That win last night was absolutely amazing. This will only fuel the greatest rivalry in College Basketball. Not only did our beloved Heels ruin Coach K's last game in Cameron Indoor but 96 of his former players got to taste again what it is like to lose to the Heels. The game was a war. It was one of the most physical and emotional games I've ever seen. I can't count how many monster dunks there were on both sides. Duke kept trying to intimidate the Heels with nasty blocks and some pretty hard fouls. Carolina kept fight back. So many opportunities for Carolina to fade away but they didn't give in. When they went up by 5 I thought they had a chance. Every 3 that Duke made was answered. This game was about who is going to blink first. Duke did. You could see that in the final minutes Duke struggling to make a basket. Carolina wasted no time in pushing the lead to a point where Duke wasn't coming back. What a game. The entire team was amazing but RJ Davis IMO was the MVP. What great leadership. Hubert Davis put the game on his starting 5 and they played the entire 2nd half without replacement. Brilliant move. Davis was like here's my best 5. You can't beat them. Duke didn't. Thank You Heels for a great game.

Some said the same thing about Mahomes and Murray. The guy has talent and what he needs is a QB in front of him so he can learn. If we could trade down get him and an offensive linemen and let him play behind Cam. He'll learn. Cam may be done but he's still better than any QB on our roster and better than most of those that are free agents. I'd rather ride with Cam than Darnold and draft a rookie than to throw more money at the QB position in a Veteran that has as many question marks as they do answers.

First of all, the draft class is weak at QB but from what I've read it is a pretty strong class for offensive linemen, which is our greatest weakness. Though a weak class overall sitting at 6 there will be a couple of elite players left and the possibility for someone to trade down with. This is my hope. Secondly, I don't see how we will get three starters out of this draft unless we somehow pull off a trade for a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. I think if we trade down we might get a 1st and a 2nd or 3rd but not both. Our next pick isn't until the 4th round and this round starts where you are drafting potential more than starter material. While it is highly possible to get a starter in round four, it's not likely. I think our best hope is that we find a solid starter in free agency and nail the two picks we pick up in a trade. There would be our three starters.

This would be perfect idea. McAdoo from what I have heard likes the TE. Cam loved using his TE. If Campen can get Brown and Christensen and hopefully a couple good FAs on the O-line going we could have a decent run with Cam. Willis could see how this works and be the future of our team.

I agree that Darnold sucked last year and makes our trade look foolish. How could anyone look good behind our line? It didn't matter who was under center they weren't going to have much time to make wise decisions. If we somehow manage to fix this line and I hope we do. Darnold, IMO should have just a slim bit of faith that maybe, just maybe he can perform better. I still believe that we need to address the QB position but we need to be wise in doing so. Throwing money at Vet QBs IMO is just as bad as reaching for a rookie QB that might not pan out. Run with Darnold and hope we fix our line. Plan for a QB in 2022 when Darnold is no longer on the books.

I've said before we have enough money tied up in Darnold and still paying Bridgewater. Trading for a Vet QB is like throwing poo at the wall and seeing if it sticks. If we are going to try Trubisky than make is as cap friendly as possible and do it. IMO he has the tools to be a good QB. As far as Mariota is concerned he's too injury prone and had a better cast around him in Tennessee than Trubisky had in Chicago.

I am in total agreement. Bringing in ANOTHER QB to fix Rhule's ineptness is going to sink this franchise for years to come. If Rhule ends up trading all our stock this season and next. The Roster rebuild is stuck until 2024 and this is if we are lucky. Rhule was all in on Darnold now he should have to ride that wave all the way in.

We would damn near 1/2 of our money going to QBs. If you count what we still owe TB5 and Darnold's 5th year option plus Cousins quick math brings us to 50 mil in QBs alone.

That would be so sad since we all thought were getting a guy that came from a solid organization. His 5 or 10% investment in the Steelers must have been just that. He learned nothing about how a football organization should be run.

Agreed. Only hope and speculation My biggest worry is that Rhule gets us on the Cusp of a playoff appearance 9-8 or 10-7 and Tepper hangs on another year. It's also not out of the question since he was forcefully force to upgrade his coaching staff. An improved staff may help his cause. I am sure that is the only reason Rhule hung around one more season.

I don't have an issue with how he manages with the picks he has. Whether trading up or down but I do (Hopefully Tepper does too) have a huge issue with Rhule playing with future picks.

Would make #1 story on ESPN. Wouldn't it be epic.
