Mr. Scot

Scott Fitterer and Joe Douglas are friends from their days on the scouting trail.

Steelers too possibly...

Its true. Happened well before the trade negotiations with us heated up. Joe Douglas said he was undecided on trading Darnold at the time. They wanted to finish the evaluation process on the draftable QBs before pulling the trigger. It's been discussed on here before.

Teams "love" a lot of draft prospects on an annual basis that they don't necessarily end up drafting.

Well, that may not have been entirely his decision, especially with regard to CJ Henderson who we know Matt Rhule was a big fan of. It's also possible that experience may have changed his mind.

Dan Morgan's voice doesn't fit his face.

Doesn't want to give up any future picks... Real happy to hear that.

"aligned"

I was aware of who they hired but not the modernization stuff. I feel like there might be more reshaping done post draft. That's when those sorts of things tend to happen. I know we need a new pro personnel guy since they parted ways with Matt Allen.

We're live

Cole Spencer...but no Matt Rhule Seems painfully obvious that the team is aware of how he's perceived...

Now I'm waiting for John Cena to pop out

I'm trying to remember a pre-draft presser that included an Assistant GM. Can't think of one

Remember seeing Laremy Tunsil in a gas mask?

Whoa!

Eeehhh, I don't know about that. A lot of the talk about Lance right now is that he's still "a year away from being a year away". He could still pan out, but even if he does it's likely to be via a lot longer path than they were expecting to have to walk when they took him.

You're on the wrong board

Pre-draft pick swap (nothing major)

I'm not buying number 3

This draft should at least be entertaining

You're familiar with the concept of humor... perhaps?

The risk with that approach is you could end up with two mediocre players when you could have had at least one great one.

Regarding the Jags... The Jaguars do have a smart football person in the room, but he's third in the pecking order. The ultimate decision is going to be made via debate between a team owner and top decision maker, neither of whom have any clue what they're doing. I mean, what a terrible situation that must b... Sh-t

Albert Breer's pre-draft comments on the Panthers from the MMQB... Carolina Panthers First round: No. 6 Total picks: 6 Needs: Edge rusher, QB, OT, OG, interior DL What you need to know: I think there’s a way better chance they’ll take a tackle here over a quarterback than most people do—provided that Cross, Ekwonu or Neal is still available when they’re up. In fact, there are teams that are convinced the Panthers won’t take a quarterback. Could they even get trigger-happy and try to trade with, say, the Jets to try to get in front of the Giants to get someone like Cross? Given their lack of numbers in picks, I’d say it’s unlikely, but I wouldn’t totally rule it out. And if the tackles are gone, or even if they aren’t, I do believe the preference here would be to trade down, maybe with a team coming up for a pass rusher. If it is a quarterback? Most have them pegged to take Willis or Pitt’s Kenny Pickett, with a little underlying buzz that Ole Miss’s Matt Corral has support in that building.
