Growl

so just to be clear you’d like to see us move a couple of 1’s

no, you need good players to do that, “lots of picks,” especially the ones the panthers acquired in the mccaffrey deal are no reliable predictive indicator of success. there is a reason the successful teams in this league are persistently willing to trade away their draft picks for proven successes.

okay well I imagine your standards in life and expectations for yourself are far lower than they likely should be

what in the hoop jumping nonsense is this the goal isn’t to “get lots of picks” it’s to “build a super bowl caliber roster”

projected as starter doesn’t meant staying power as a successful player, you’re looking at roughly a ~35% chance of a player selected in the second and third round becoming a long term player for you those aren’t bankable numbers and the idea that the “good teams” get 3-4 starters out of every draft has been an enduring myth around here

it’s going to be pretty easy to say that we lost when the draft rolls around and no player they got comes close to rivaling the kind of impact mccaffrey has. most of those picks don’t project as starters

lol hi nufan cam Newton was widely regarded, and the panthers were widely lashed for taking, what was considered “the worst #1 overall pick ever”

the notion that the team has to trade him RIGHT NOW is stupid, people are so consumed with DRAFT PICKS that they forget the actual point of football teams moving Burns is only desirable if you need extra pieces to move into the top 2 for a QB. That option will still be there come season’s end. more ideally you lose out and acquire your QB organically if you need to move Brian Burns to get your QB you’re still a Brian Burns away from a super bowl roster

what are you talking about, Moore has already signed his contract

is this a pick 2 or…??

Wow so like your entire belief system is predicated on unquantifiable information, it’s almost impressive

the only thing sweeter than watching the media gripe about this is watching the mock draft dweebs pout that nobody is gonna care about their Big, Excellent Off-season Draft Plan Thread (again)

lol the media wanted this guy in a big market so bad.

why am I Uber confident that you’ve never watched a single snap of Justin fields football since he touched down in chicago

you can always tell who the NuFans are when they drop the ole “there’s no Cam Newton in this class!”

there’s nothing tepper can do, he owes the league for conspiring to force the sale to him it doesn’t matter how many games the league steals, he’s got to sit there silently and take it like a good little yes man may as well find a new desktop ornament, dave

he’s perfect for what this team needs a guy to continue losing games

Unfortunately I don’t think anyone is prying a top two pick away from Houston or Detroit, those teams are useless

“look at these outliers I found that I was thinking of exclusively when I made my initial point before you inserted this hard data into the discussion, perhaps we should focus more on these outliers and disregard the data to better suit my confirmation bias”

tHe OdDs aRe AgAiNsT iT

because there’s no such thing as “better culture” and QB isn’t just something you “figure out”

I kinda preferred just losing the other ways

the tie would be the better winning percentage thus they’d pick after

people here really just watch panthers games don’t they

we already knew he didn’t have a big leg typically you pardon tbat because those guys are money inside 50 dude missed two no reason to keep him around
