It really was crazy. The NFL hype on him was nuts. And I think for our FO, we basically outsmarted ourselves. Some of that has to do with Tepper going against the grain and wanting show how much of a genius he is. Stroud should have been the guy. I thought it might end up being an NFL horror story of sending an undersized kid to get crushed as first overall. I'll give him this though he is tough as nails. This season will give us a better measure of where he's at, I think. I was hoping he'd come back a little bigger muscle wise though.

These look like complete poo lol

Really pissed me off that we cut Cam and then finally addressed the areas he desperately needed support from. Cam deserved another chance with a new staff(with an offseason).

Fair point but I think the personal touch Morgan has with the franchise makes me believe he’s incredibly invested in our success. He played with flat out studs in Peppers, Jenkins, Smitty, Witherspoon, Hoover, etc. He knows what pure talent vs scheme oriented brilliance looks like. You might think this because of the rough ride Bryce went through last year. But the moves we made this offseason are the type of moves you make for any first overall pick . I don’t think Canales is as tied to Bryce as people think. That said we have to be able to evaluate him without any caveats to truly see if he’s the guy.

I’d rather take the chance that Sanders rebounds rather than take a RB in the draft (unless it’s like 5th round).

We can't afford to trade down and dilute the talent pool. We need to take BPA that can address our needs at 33 and 39. Those selections are at a sweet spot for 1st round grades to fall.

My personal theory is that Ron saw he had an automatic 3rd and 4th down conversion machine and to save his own ass road Cam that way till the wheels fell off. He was close to being canned before Riverboat. Coach Chud had Cam on the right track, and we should have made a better effort to keep him. He had Cam coming out swinging, throwing all over the field. We did RPO's but we also played under center and threw on first and second down consistently. Because Cam was a force of nature, we were able to get away with it for a while simply because he was soo damn good. But our offense got predictable. We became a high risk/high reward offense without the supporting talent to keep that sustainable. Our RB's began to age and the o-line was degrading, and WR talent wasn't getting replenished. We didn't really start addressing this until 2017/2018. Cam started looking like the passer he was always capable of being and then TJ Watt had to be a POS and KB was too lazy to chase a defender.

We outsmarted ourselves with analytics to justify Tepper’s genius. The eye test was enough. That said Bryce is a Panther and I hope he succeeds.

Wouldn’t be a rollercoaster if the NFL didn’t rig superbowl 50.

Same way the became billionaires. Stole it.

Hopefully there won't be a run on WR's and we can get the guy we want.

I think you have to sign Gilmore and push CB to 2025. WR, LB, C in the first 3 rounds unless an absolute steal of a DE falls to us. I’d be against double dipping WR in the second. We have to spread the talent around. We also need some considerations for what TEs could be available.

Best case scenario is Sanders stepping up this season. He had some moments where he flashed at the end of the year because he was playing for respect. He would save us a draft pick next month if he can deliver .

Damn if we get Gilmore this defense will be better than last years.

Cam God Newton

Horn learning from Gilmore would be nice

I think it's more so about the reservations of Bryce based on his selection and what we gave up for him. The #1 pick should be an elevator and a guy that can carry the team. So, he shouldn't need a stacked offense to show what he can do. But we very obviously had the exact opposite of that last season so I can't blame the FO for going all out to this offseason to evaluate Bryce.

Better off seeing what Bryce can do then try to rebuild Fields.

I mean trash gonna trash you know

Resign Cam draft BPA.

Eat my ass John Snow

It was once stupid to believe the world was round. Resigning Cam is always a W.

No alt here. Just a Cam sandwich.

With these moves we’d thrive with Cam under center if Bryce struggles. Also Cam deserves a resign thread every year so I’m just doing my job here.

We should find out if Bryce is the real deal at least.
