wonder if they are hiring?

I thought so too, but when he announced that he was looking to add another CB, it made me wonder

Three weeks until the kids go back to school.

You have. Why not stop trying to flaunt your Piagetian concrete operational skills and so that those with actual camp news can post?

We have limited access to the players' development. Being first on the field is a symptom of an eager, competitive person who is ready to go. For example, sitting on the front row in school does not mean you are getting an A, but more kids from the front row make As compared to those who sit in the back. You do not give As to the kids based on where they sit, but it is a fair indicator of their work ethic.

Seriously--he has to know he is not going anywhere as an NFL QB--just invest the money and live a happy life knowing that you had all the tools and opportunity and you failed.

Who needs CBs? Snow is going to a 4/6/1 defense, I heard.

I kinda wish Darnold would be fired up and ready to compete to save his career. Too much Surf Nazi in him. I would be pissed, insulted, and determined to send Baker to the pine--- I dunno. At this point, he had few options--that is what 4 years of suckage does to a person.

He put 300 on on us one year. Hellacious defense

Move him to TE to take Gronk's rolw

They will be shopping Darnold for a future conditional seventh rounder and they will eat most of his salary if MC9 shows enough to be QB2. That is the only scenario I see for Walker to make the team--and I am ready to move on from him, frankly.

can't watch without my thesaurus.

Wow. Not good. My uncle lost more than that in one day. Had his leg amputated.

He had to get right for speedo season

Now we know that herbert would have been worth moving up for---Fields in 2021 over Horn?

And there are many defensive lineman that take a few years to mature and develop. I see Brown in that mold. I still wonder how, in this era of the QB, we had top 10 draft picks and ended up taking a DT and a CB when the QBs were pretty good--only to take a QB during a draft when they were not that good--at the end of round 3 no less.

last season, they thought the addressed the OL on day 1 of free agency (we hated the OL acquisitions then, and rightly so) and they really thought the QB position had been addressed or we'd have Fields right now. I think they are taking a wiser, more practical approach to this season, fwiw.

exactly

If I may speculate--he seemed to suffer from an identity crisis last year--was trying to rush the passer on every down and got blown up a lot. If he anchors and bull rushes on passing situations, he should be better.

On paper, and maybe I am drunk on preseason optimism, but I think we are better than last year. I worry about DE/OLB, Left OL, QB, CMC's health, Anderson's mental condition, and linebacker--not many people worrying about that--but I think we need a stud MLB and I do not see it.

If Baker plays and has a good year, he is going to seek $40-50m. I say, in that case, we tag him and see how well Corral is developing. If Baker has a good year 2 here, you should pay him. I was talking to my brother-in-law--a chiropractor from columbus, Ohio--and he said they liked Baker in Ohio because he was the first successful QB (2020) in some time and his blue collar chip on the shoulder was a good fit for the dog pound. He said we got a good deal-Baker was hurt in 2021 and there were coaching issues as well as some locker room issues that bent him sideways. Said he could be really good with a new team and some new maturity. He thinks this may have humbled him, but he has been proving himself his entire life--don't bet against him. Said Darnold is soft and the next Joey Harrington with a Sam Bradford upside...Said he was certain we'd draft Fields last year. I said, "But we had all our eggs in the Darnold basket."

The amount of Money on the table for a successful QB is enormously higher than the peanuts they are squabbling over now. It makes NO SENSE to miss one minute of camp because the odds are already against the player.

I guessed Burns before reading. Makes sense.

Sportrac has his projected contract at $5m over 4 years....He will probably get time vs. Sam Howell of the Commanders during the first preseason game...Cannot believe Howell was not taken until round 5--behind 4th rounder Bailey Zappe. I personally think that both Corral and Howell have upside and could be some of the drafts best steals when we look back in a few years.

Somebody does not know the Panthers., This is lazy journalism.
