So we cut Deonte and Tecklenburg but kept Jordan? lol alrighty then

I know you're salty and looking to settle a score but you've actually attempted to make that comparison before. If Rhule can turn this roster around and have us that competitive in our division and the rest of the conference I'll be the first to eat crow and congratulate him.

Bring in all the OL depth for a visit please.

You're actually comparing him to Rhule?

Has anyone mentioned he might be "our" Deebo yet? Who is "our" Kyle Shanahan to coach him up then?

That would be spectacular if we got a Deebo Samuel tier weapon from the Jaguars for peanuts but the odds with these kinds of trades say it will be somewhere in between if that. The familiarity he has with McAdoo and working with Baker is enough to feel pretty good about it but it all depends on how he puts it together after his last team gave up on him.

If you read up on Twitter the takes from Jags fans who know all about him it's a mixed bag and this is just part of that full picture he hasn't missed many games because he's only 23 but he's been banged up. This is a boom or bust trade and for a late rounder I'm obviously fine with it but I'm not going to put blinders on and assume every Jags fan is being a hater ya know.

Addition by subtraction. Now let's get some better depth after cuts.

Here's to hoping this guy can stay healthy. https://www.draftsharks.com/fantasy/injury-history/laviska-shenault/10605

I still get a hearty laugh out of your old extremely pro Sam Darnold threads poundaway.

Why are you so mad lol. When was the last time you were critical of Panthers mgmt or even acknowledged their faults and bad decisions that have been made the last two years. Hey poo this post too hell go for all of them if it makes you feel better. Good talk bud.

Who doesn't? That does not guarantee sifting through the leftovers bin of bottom feeder franchises is going to help us achieve that goal though. I'll hope this guy can be a success for us but nobody is required to conform to your heavily home team tinted shades viewpoint.

Seems to be a foregone conclusion at this point if he cannot stay on the field. I was excited for his potential but at the time I knew we passed over oline talent and we convinced ourselves it was a slam dunk because supposedly the Saints were after him too. It's funny some folks can't handle discussing these truths and just rush in to poo posts like if they just double and triple down everything will work out in our favor

Sure would've been nice not to waste two consecutive 2nd round picks in him and Sam Darnold.

Never heard of him. I guess we balked at the Jets asking price for Mims lol. Hopefully this guy is another weapon. If this helps us in moving away from McCaffrey having 30 or more touches a game because we lack playmakers I guess I'll see how good he is. But our decision makers continuing to look for gold at the bottom of rosters like the Jets and Jags does make you scratch your head.

Who let these swamp rats in?

I get the circumstance comparison but all the same fug Drew Brees. I hope the OL can protect Baker and he has a career year. It's past time we become a force in this division.

Well we did give up two picks for him. I agree about taking Willis or Howell based on readiness. But we can't call any of these QB's a success based on preseason alone. It's a very tricky position some quarterbacks who look somewhat competent initially hit a wall and others who didn't can blossom with more time. One of our former QB's lit us up last year in BOA and is now fighting for a backup spot. Corral has a much more narrow window to learn and show something now and that's unfortunate but it happens. How it unfolded is just one more reason to feel doubt about the track record of this staff though.

I didn't say other teams backups are good. But we are talking about the Panthers who have been trying to rebuild the oline for what seems like 15 years now. People act like this place is filled with Corral superfans but it isn't reality. Many fans wanted this staff to finally draft their own QB. Rhule and Fitterer had their chances to move up for Willis and they could have even double dipped for Howell but declined. If Corral is a bust that's on them.

For all your bluster about negative fans you're pretty reactionary yourself bub. I didn't bash Baker I just stated the current reality of the situation. He still has to go out there and prove himself to be considered elite same as any other QB would regardless of where they were drafted.

We're all frustrated. But the simple fact of the matter is PFF had us as the 31st ranked OL in the NFL last year. We consistently gave our only MVP in franchise history slop outside of his rookie season with Gross and the Super Bowl run. We want a franchise QB. We may end up drafting another next season. Baker looks to hopefully be serviceable in the meantime. But we have got to end this agonizing run of fail in building a real oline if we want to make these desires reality.

You can tell who wanted him to fail and why. He wasn't even my first choice I wanted Malik Willis based on his ceiling and playmaking ability. But there was no reason to hate on our draft pick unlike certain Howell fanboys.

Bringing in a former Jets kicker ugh.
