I'd trade him before I benched him and with two big money OGs now it's LT or bust.

fug it. We've already gutted the D. Just go all in at this point. I want no more Bryce excuses.

Michael Jordan is the GOAT and proved to have an atrocious eye for talent. Just two completely different skill sets.

I think they believe he's still salvageable at LT. I hope they're right because Lord knows this roster already has plenty of holes.

There's no way I pull the trigger on that Burns trade this early for that little in return. Do them like the Jets did us with Darnold. You know they want him, make them sweat. Make them negotiate against themselves. You're not gonna end up coming away with LESS than a 2nd and 5th. Honestly, Tepper's quick trigger finger on firings hurts us strategically. Everyone is thinking about NOW because there's no guarantee you have a job tomorrow much less next year. Oh, you're offering me a 1st next year? Hell, I'd rather have a 5th this year. I think I'll at least be able to make that pick.

The only reason we weren't getting blasted every Sunday last year is because our D was at least decent enough to keep us from getting utterly embarrassed every week. It looks like we're about to be like Vandy in the SEC this season. Just hopeless and everybody knows it.

Honestly, it kinda feels like Morgan is just getting setup to be the fall guy. Come in here and clear out a bunch of mess, make the unpopular move of giving Burns away for little return, pay some OGs like LTs because our super processor is 5'8" and then I'll throw you under the bus and rage fire you when we're 0-6. Just seems like the way Tepper works.

Planning your draft out to force picks by position always works well. Dave, do you think you'll draft a corner?

Yep. If you have a high level of physical talent and can spin it in practice and you're a good guy in the locker room like by coaches, other players, and front office types you're probably gonna end up banking a lot of money even if you're completely terrible every time you actually step into the field on a Sunday. They're the NFL equivalent of that ass kissing corporate middle management ladder climber who everyone knows brings nothing to the table but somehow they just hang around and fail upward anyway.

Imagine being as bad at something as Sam Darnold is at NFL QBing and it still being worth $10M a year.

They still think he's a LT. Just gonna have to hope last year was a bump in the road in his career because opposing edge rushers sure treated him like a speed bump.

The Seahawks traded Frank Clark and a 3rd to the Chiefs in 2019 for a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round picks.

If Fitts had made better moves maybe he wouldn't have been such a bad GM. I didn't have an issue with Fitts personally, I just thought he was an atrocious GM.

What another team did with their resources is irrelevant. The point is that we don't even have that opportunity. Higher picks give you a better opportunity to acquire talent. Period.

We won those two games because our D was at least decent. We've now gutted that defense.

We really do. When you have a QB who struggles to throw more than 10-15 yards down the field a receiving back is a key weapon. The irony is that we had the best one in the league before we got fleeced and gave him away and then turned those already meager assets into practically nothing.

I'm a fan of the Panthers. The issue at hand here is trade compensation. We got fleeced. We're the worst team in the league in large part because we're making quite the habit of getting fleeced.

No, they didn't. He was on the final year of his rookie contract playing under his fifth year option.

How many playoff games have we appeared in since Tepper bought the team?

We've already gutted the D so go for it. Sign the best OL we can. Trade for Higgins. Give Bryce no excuses. Just be ready to move on if he still looks like trash.

Not true. Mack was going into his fifth year playing under his fifth year option. The Bears immediately inked him to a new deal making him the highest paid edge rusher in the league.

The Bears immediately inked Mack to a new deal within hours of the trade making him the highest paid edge rusher in the league.

We drafted Bryce Young and Jonathan Mingo. The Texans drafted CJ Stroud and Tank Dell. And...

Watch us make Higgins the highest paid WR in the league... and he'll have 600 yards and two TDs.

I've been saying without joking that the Panthers would be better ran if decisions were being made via Huddle poll. I mean, could we do any worse than last?
