About the OBJ argument: He has not been great everywhere he has been. And since WRs do not take snaps, there has to be strategy involved to get him the ball. Of course, there will always be the argument that the player made the coach and not the other way around--but that can be said about every coach.

I am hoping for the Rams and Bills....Do not want to see the Niners give the Bucs a home NFC championship game and Brady another Super Bowl appearance. I despise him---share the wealth. The Bills, if they keep playing like they did last week, are a tough out. The Bills / Chiefs game might be one for the ages.

Jackson can't stay on the field--why would we pay him? Gilmore is old and will be hitting the wall at any time-but I would rather have him. Henderson, Bouye, Horn, Taylor, etc. CB is fine with pressure.

Notice how he aligns himself with Tepper and makes light of the hire. At times he gets too cute..."We drafted (the RB from OK St-Hubbard) because my wife thought he had a good game vs. Baylor." (paraphrased). From there, he went into the longsnapper film room to study the next pick on his own.

That is pretty racist if you consider the play on words.

Rhule says he wants an OC with NFL play calling experience. He is widely criticized for the lack of NFL experience and nepotism involved in picking his staff. Here is a sentence from David Newton's press release to SI. See if you can spot the "SMH" phrase in this statement: "Rhule talked to eight or nine candidates, some from the college ranks, before settling on McAdoo."

Thanks--I doubt Darnold has given him any reason to change his mind.

He has seen 3 pretty good offenses as a coach/coordinator--player personnel decisions moving forward will be key--wonder how he likes Darnold?

I bought some rose-colored glasses at a flea market and I can see the genius behind this 1000%. You all are so blind.

In a year he will become McAdid. (Just kidding--I am on fire though) Or McAdone.

Just glad it was not Montgomery---if this does not work out, it is only for 1 season.

Since I wrote this, he has moved to the top 5. Amazing

Good point. I was using the players to help visualize the value of these picks--but you are right--

Would you trade Burns, Brown, and Horn for a franchise QB?

I imagine Daniel Snyder made life difficult in Washington.

Red Alert needs (needs that MUST be addressed this offseason): Both G positions, TE, and QB. Next level needs (needs that should be in the longer-term plan): LT (depending on BC), and Center. I am OK with the WR group if they involve Shi Smith and Marshall more--I like Zylstra as a possession WR. I really hope to see a TE emerge as an offensive weapon, and I like the RB rotation when CMC is healthy.

So we bring in the least experienced for a second interview. SMH https://www.espn.com/blog/carolina-panthers/post/_/id/36032/carolina-panthers-coach-matt-rhule-prioritizing-nfl-experience-in-search-for-new-offensive-coordinator

that is the question and I wish I knew. There seems to be a dropoff around #10-12 in this draft, in my opinion. The top talent is shallow. I am guessing, if we have a list of 4-5 players we want, that one might fall to the middle of the round, but not necessarily. I am very anxious to see how Fitterer handles this.

Philly has enough draft capital to make some noise--if they are not happy with Jalen Hurts, they could be the first domino to fall. Imagine trading away 2 firsts this year for a top QB...Then Hurts and Minshew become available. Just spitballing-nobody knows.

No, I agree--but when the cap is factored in, the fact that we have 1 pick in the top 100, etc. What is he going to do? Free agency going after a starting QB--will he sell the farm--I see no QB worth the farm or the #6 pick---what is Rhule the Fuhle going to do?

This summarized (nicely) the predicament the Panthers created. This is why I see them leaving BC at LT, Elflein at C, and signing 2 higher end guards in free agency. Then they will draft a QB (they are all developmental in this draft) and hope that he eventually takes the job from Darnold. This way, we get to see Darnold behind an improved line and we get a young QB to develop. Not my plan, but I see them doing it.

All of them are flawed--contracts, injury history, play, etc. I think I would take Carr (being practical) if he were affordable.

...according to this article. Thought it might be nice to see who might be available. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2022-nfl-offseason-aaron-rodgers-russell-wilson-kirk-cousins-among-15-veteran-qbs-who-could-be-on-the-move/ It is a bit dated (3 weeks) but it features Carolina as a possible landing spot for several top free agent QBs. Enjoy---sorry, no mention of how much Rhule sucks in the article.

We are going to go after him.
