I will wait until it leaves the Twitter verse and gets to some journalists with more NFL/Panthers connections before I just off the cliff yet. And, don't get me wrong, love Watson the player but paying a king's ransom for a guy that may be out of football for a while would be next level stupid. They better know something we don't if this does happen. They better know this was all BS or he is gonna get off with a mild punishment or something. And that is not even diving into the level of character situation that the fans will have to tolerate. I am not the "trial by media" type of dude but the amount of smoke there.....woof.

Good to great? This isn't gonna age well.....

Wilson elevates the team quite a bit but it wasn't like QB was the one thing keeping them from being a contender like the Rams. Which, I hope they aren't able to out it together. fug the Broncos.

If this happens.....we are a laughingstock for a long time. Sean Gilbert, step aside.

That is ultimately the problem with ownership driven issues. It isn't hard for the WTFs/Foreskins/Rocketeers to be successful, but it is with Dan Snyder in charge.

Honestly, yeah. I think we are too. There is a small shred of hope somewhere in me that thinks maybe with a new coach it will all be better but the warning signs are all there. Talented depleted roster, bad salary cap decisions and bad contracts, poor roster decisions, poor drafting, and worst of all......meddling, dumb fug owner. Everything is there to make us a cellar dweller for decades.

Tepper wants the impossible, to make this attractive to an elite QB like Stafford, Watson, Wilson, etc. It just isn't gonna happen. You need to build something players believe in first and we are failing miserably at that. We have no real option for finding an elite QB other than the draft. That's it. Now, on a weirdly positive note, we should be seeing top 5-10 picks for quite some time, so as long as we don't squander more opportunities, we will have a lot of shots to get a guy. Whether we have a team that will allow them to make us successful, who knows?

Safety is a second need? On the Panthers??? Damn. You are stupid.

The difference is that Denver wasn't already a competitive team. They are talented but not good. LA was only a couple of years removed from a SB appearance, were competitive and insanely talented. Wilson makes then a SB contender but I don't think I would consider them a favorite.

Our path is far worse, unfortunately. While they didn't get much in terms of compensation, at least they got something. Losing Cam and trying to replace him has only cost us more and more. All this while we very intentionally stripped almost all talent from the roster. As bad as it will be as a Seahawks fan, they got a title and an amazing run while they go back to square one. We are sliding back ever further into the Bengals/Browns/Jets category of ineptitude.

Giving an elite QB will haunt then but they did dig that hole for a while. Wilson covered up years of poor drafting and bad personnel choices. If they keep drafting the way they have been, the picks they got aren't going to accomplish much.

He's just stupid. The one thing you learn arguing with dumb people is you never chance their POV, they just bring you to their level.

Well we also don't have those picks to even offer. No 2nd this year. Our picks should have more value, though. They will be top 5-10 for the foreseeable future. I also highly doubt Wilson would waive a no trade clause to come here. Similar to Watson, actually. The truth is, none of the elite QB's in the NFL want anything to do with us in our current state.

Now I just question your knowledge of football.

You must be a Darnold fan. No other explanation.

So we are/were pursuing Watson but not Wilson??? I hope it has to do with him not wanting to be traded here....otherwise we are pretty dumb.

Ugh. I hate the Broncos and now they get an elite QB for a pretty reasonable price. Jesus. We are just gonna suck for a long time. Like the Seahawks now.

I don't love taking him at 6 but I don't hate it. I do think Penning will be successful somewhere on the OL. Can't say the same for Brown or Christensen.

Yeah, hence why we suck so badly. Worry about churning the bottom of the roster when it doesn't basically look the same as the top of the roster.

I don't want to trade up. We don't have the luxury of spending those resources. If we can get a top 3 OT at 6, just do that. If not, explore trade down options. After all, we should be able to get a starting OL in the first round. If a starting quality tackle is still available, don't trade down so far you miss on that.

It stung we thrice when we passed on Slater. That was my dude.

I don't want to see Ekwonu go right before us. Shades of Sewell in 2021.

Well, look at him at USC and now. Is there really any appreciable improvement?

How is Faalele a winner because of his measurements? Did that guy not watch the Combine practices where he struggled a LOT with speed rushers?
