So what did Kalil say

Not sure 

from article:

At a lunch with members of the Panthers front office, Kalil endorses Darnold. The two ex-USC stars were teammates in New York in 2019 when Kalil put his retirement off for one season. “

The jets wanted a 1st rounder.  
 

From the article:

There was some consideration from Douglas not to do this deal yet. The team felt there was a chance it could get that coveted first-rounder, or conditional first-rounder, if it held Darnold until the draft. Ultimately, Carolina’s decision to include the fourth-rounder, in addition to the second and sixth, convinced Douglas. There was some risk in that, if he waited, the Panthers would decide to go in a different direction, much like Washington and San Francisco. There was also the outside chance a quarterback would fall to No. 8, which would also take Carolina out of the running for Darnold. With no other talks as intense as the ones with Fitterer, Douglas accepts.

They have Reiff at RT but they already drafted Jonah Williams in 2019 at LT. I think Cincy is going Chase.

Yeah Reiff can also play LT. 

Riley Reiff has agreed to terms with Cincinnati today.

A veteran offensive tackle who has been a starter at left tackle for most of his career, Reiff spent the last four years with the Vikings and five years before that with the Lions.

I really want Sewell!

Straight up, Teddy for Chase Winovich.

That ship has sailed.  We drafted Grier right before Pats chose Winovich.  
 

Damn Hurney. 

He was a pro bowl corner a couple years ago.  
 

Bring on the LT!!!!  And let’s go.

You obviously offer him Teddy, Greg Little and agree to throw in a 2023 2nd rounder or Rashaan Gaulden.

Definitely Gualden. 

Throw in a bottle of scotch and tell him he isn’t going to get any picks right after the first round anyway.  
 

Hurndog would give us 12 picks.

He’s not a good deep ball thrower, to quote a jets fan from last year, “it’s better for Robby to sign elsewhere him and Darnold don’t match very well”

Robby got worse with Darnold

I don’t know if Darnold will work out.  But Robby was not worse with him. 
 

He had like 1300 yards and an 88% completion rate.  
 

He was worse under Checkdown TB

Tepper is a successful hedge fund manager. He hasn’t exactly been a successful businessman. Check our record. 

So a hedge fund isn’t a business???

Would be dumb not to...

Have to now.  

This will either go down as a steal or a tragic waste of draft picks.  
 

But it is at least going to be an interesting season.  This board will be hopping.

Give Darnold OL and few weapons and watch him ball.  I was Darnold hater until I watched his tape.  Dude ran for him life in NY and still made some amazing plays.

Funny you say that.  I went to find some tape because I only remember seeing play on a Monday night game after being drafted. And your right. His whole highlights are him making something out of nothing.  Guess Van Roten didn’t make that line all pro. 
 

He would be better that teddy.  For a 4th I would be fine.  

If we get Lance I don’t care what happens the rest of the draft. 

I am just excited to see draft that doesn’t include Hurney diving into a bottle of scotch after the first round.  

Reddick  on the other side should help those numbers. 

I just keep reliving that David Moore catch over him a couple years ago.  
 

I had hopes for him when drafted.  But he always looked lost.  

I like the kid if we don’t get one in the first.

Bigger sin: Trading for Josh Rosen or signing Teddy Bridgewater?

Biggest sin is beating the WFT in a late season game to go from picking 3 to 8th and not getting a franchise QB. 

We will also get another 26 mill for releasing Bridgewater I think. 

Mills is a good name for a Panther. 

I wanted Lance from last year.  I would do back flips to pull that off.  

Looks like our only option unless someone likes Jones.  Not sure I like either of them.

Nah my friend, Fox is a 3, or a 5 tech on the DL. Burns, and Reddick as the OLB's in an Odd front, Matos has experience in a 2pt stance, then add in Haynes / Miller / Luvu as depth on the edge of the front 7. 

 

Interested to see if Miller can turn into something.  

He could be a mess.  But I’m still happy that it’s someone besides Hurney.  
 

And I have always loved the Seattle drafts.  Yes they miss some but they also pull out some late round gems.
