You can spend all the money you want, it doesn't guarantee anything.

Of course I would rather trade back if we can pick up extra picks. The question is how far do we want to move. 15 is about as far as I want to drop down. Now if I could pull of some first-pick trades and end up with 7 2nds and still have a pick in the first, well then, I might be willing to drop into the late 20s.

I'm not even opposed to Pitts. Watching how Kelce absolutely decimated teams even when they plan for him shows how important that position really is. We have really suffered at the TE position since Greg broke his foot the first time.

So speculation is a first and multiple other picks in 2-4. Hard pass. If were going to spend that many picks take the risk and add a 1st and try and trade up for a QB on a rookie contract.

No. People are pissed because just like always, Ron made no adjustments until it was to late to actually win the game. I'm still not 100% sure he was not trying to tank. That team was not very good and they werent going to go far in the playoffs. WFT needs a QB and moving up from 10 or 11 is a whole lot easier than from 19. I still think its possible Rivera was trying to tank by playing his worst player. Pederson tanking worse bit them in the ass.

I dont necessarily think it will go 4 QBs with the first 4 picks. It could easily when teams start trading looking for a QB. I do think those 4 will be gone by 7. So many teams have QB needs and next years class looks weak overall. So if teams want one, and theres a lot of teams that need one, there will be some movement early and often to get one.

I was trying to using one lame duck coach to describe another.

Some things are never gonna change. It is what it is.

A lot is going to depend on Slater's measurables. His tape from previous season looks really good and he can play inside or out. If he impresses at workouts and really shows up, who knows. Sewell may be there at 8 if Cincy likes what he brings better.

He said in his post game presser his future was "uncertain." Who knows what that means right after losing the championship game.

One game out of 55 played in NJ in 2014.

Now that Tampa will have home field advantage for the SB, I think it's worth discussing that every NFL team should be given the opportunity to host not just the domed teams or those in warm climates. If TB wins, home field could definitely play a part.

It's the Brady factor. Same thing happened in NE. Guys would play for less because they knew they had a legitimate shot at a ring.

Wouldn't care if we did either if it meant a Lombardi trophy. All that's remembered about that Panthers magical season is Cam not falling on that fumble and Denver kicking our asses in the SB.

Could very possibly be celebrating 1 or 2 SB wins. I wouldn't care if we only had Brady for a season if it meant a SB coming home to Carolina.

Which will we have more of? Days until trade deadline or Watson threads?

Cam was damaged goods and everyone knew it. Ron and co. ran him into the ground. You cant take that many hits as a QB and expect a long career. It's why so many people, myself included, kept saying if he kept playing like that he would hit the RB wall at 30. To top it off, he made that stupid video bragging about how he lied to team doctors and his coach about the severity of his injury and hurt his entire team in the process. That doesn't go over well when you want other people to hire you. He broke 1 foot then shot himself in the other. No one was going to trade a 3rd or even a 7th for him. Cam could have been so much more but Ron fugging detonated his career.

The Gase factor cannot be underestimated. I'm not sure how long it would take to undo any damage done, but he is an interesting option for the right price. I wouldn't give up 8 for him tho.

Hurney is being brought in to make the 1st round pick. It's the only logical explanation.

I'd start another thread about Watson.

I remember mine. Not sure who it was against but he tried to throw a 40 yard bomb and it had more hang time and wobble than a punt. I thought maybe it had been tipped at the line or he couldnt step into it because of pressure, but it was a free shot. I had to rewind it 4 or 5 times to double check but he just flat out threw a wounded duck on his best effort.

Maybe Marty got fired for giving him a bad burrito.

It’s hard to tier so many players but that’s the way I’ve always viewed it. You have you’re elites (1-3), top tier (4-15), high end (16-40) then break it down by position and need from there. Certain positions go in areas like IOL in rounds 2-3. It’s important to be able to know these hot spots and when to move around or take someone. Hurney always trusted the feeling in his gut. I think he just ate a bad burrito.
