  1. Trust me, there isn't the ability to be self aware because the combined New England fanbase is cumulatively about 200 IQ points.
  2. I mean, potential bust versus literally zero QB? Lol
  3. But that is what I always said. Brady isn't remotely a draw.
  4. It isn't debatable. The Bears have a substantially better roster, they have a potentially franchise QB on a rookie deal and a not idiot owner. Those are all advantages over Vegas. Literally the only "media" advantage was Brady as part owner but being a great player may have nothing to do with that. See Jordan, Michael.
  5. We will just have to disagree. There is an older statistical analysis into this but it basically places RB as lowest wins shares/position. That isn't accidental. Now, I will say that has the caveat of that could change over time. It just isn't the case now
  6. The Raiders always seemed like a insane long shot. I mean....what was the draw?
  7. But value IS the core of the argument. RB's represent some of the worst wins/position in the draft. I am not saying that it is insane to take a RB high in the draft but your needs basically need to align with that. Ultimately, in the first two rounds, it is a luxury pick. You basically already have a great roster.
  8. I don't think so but I could put together a model looking into that. We would have to agree on the parameters.
  9. I mean....you cannot deny that man the talent he displays. It is exceptional. If it lasts is the crux(Wentz, Stroud, etc).
  10. It was the best job of this cycle. Stacked roster, not a complete idiot of an owner and has a potential QB ON A ROOKIE DEAL. This was such a no-brainer. Plus the Bears GM isn't an idiot like most of the openings.
  11. But did they significantly outpace the guys in the 3rd round or later? The only one in recent memory to do that is Henry. Furthermore, not a single one of those guys has sniffed a championship. That's really more the point. The track record of top RB's or top PAID RB's getting to championships is quite bad. There is a reason for that.
  12. @Mr. Scot I told you. This was the only job that really made sense.
  13. True. The infuriating thing is he is such a talented player that you want to find a way to use him effectively.
  14. Maybe but the pendulum is starting to swing a little towards more rushing based attacks(typical cyclical NFL). In that world he doesn't fit at LB unless he bulks up quite a bit. He isn't that different than someone like Isaiah Simmons in terms of being a guy that is hard to find a spot to be successful in.
  15. The bad part is that you see how good Becton has been with the switch to OG. Had we been a little more forward thinking, perhaps you don't spend mega bucks on the OG's and move Ikey inside once you get a good LT replacement. Ikey has the capability to be a solid LT but possibly All Pro OG.
  16. I think the truth is, as hard as it is for Panthers fans to accept, he is a very scheme specific guy with a limited ceiling. With our current DC, he doesn't fit at all. Take that as you will, as I think everyone should have ample questions about how Evero utilizes talent.
  17. Well, one is a rookie, one is a tier 2 QB that is trending towards tier 3 with their current OC. The other two are elite.
  18. It's not principle, it's just smart business. The alternative is back to the drawing board or spending insanely in free agency. Now the contract extension could be dicey. Let's hope he gives the hometown discount as a CLT native and lifelong Panthers fan.
  19. Go look back at the draft articles. Our coaching staff was on record believing he was going to be that guy. Which, don't forget he was a FS in college.
  20. Not necessarily. Don't forget they drafted Chinn to be that FS.
