Lazy writing. three may not make the team, and if you only evaluate skill players, you missed some things.

well said.

I am going to say something that might be unpopular--Steve Smith Sr. is obnoxious and juvenile at times--I don't get the idea that he has done his homework. I know some of you like him, but he gets on my nerves.

Plummer statue at BOA in the works--

I think Plummer is the top rated QB in the NFL this season.

I hope Corbett was practicing his snaps when that big baby was being born. I was there for both of my son's births--I have never felt more useless in my life. I would say to Corbett--have you ever heard of Zoom? Team first, lover boy.

Plummer went to Louisville. Johnny Unitas went to Louisville. That is not a coincidence. Mind blown!

QB controversy in Charlotte? Plummer the next Brady? Tepper greatest owner ever? I am so confused!!!!

I forgot about him. Yup Not sure we have had a GM that was good at drafting day 2 and 3

I am thinking home field throughout the playoffs. Mark my words==of course, I was just kidding, but it all starts with the OL. When Brooks get ready and the light comes on for XL---we could be good

The two guards Anderson and #71 both look good. How would they look vs. Starters? Does the RB from Monmouth have special teams abilities?

So I write that there does not seem to be a mathematical way Marshall makes the roster, and Smith-Marsette hurts his ankle and Moore lets a TD pass get stripped--as Marshall catches a few slants and scores a TD--Moore was also open on the play action pass that was too late arriving--whenever I stick my neck out....

MHS's HALFTIME ANALYSIS by MHS831 8/24/24 Raym is doing great at C Brooks (#71) is doing a fine job at RG Marshall Jr has no mathematical way to make this roster/ Plummer will suffice as the PS QB #3. I still do not think Dalton needs to plant any trees at his Charlotte home. Miles Sanders should not make the roster. He will, but when Brooks returns, we are going to dump him/trade him for a 7th. Boone is a solid PS player. Bootle was picked on the entire Buffalo TD drive. Not good for him. TE Sanders is the real deal. Matthews over Thomas as the third TE? Leota is quietly solid. DJ Johnson gets lost. Where is Barno? Still hurt? BC was in at LT--I think he should be our swing T--if Raym can play decent backup C, and he seems good so far--BC and Nijman give us solid depth on the outside. Zavala is a different player this year. I have yet to see him look confused or take a false step like last season. In the second half, Canales needs to get a ball to Legette. he does not need to go 2 weeks thinking about that drop. Considering the fact that we entered this draft with no first rounder, a good draft would have been finding 2 impact players. By the time the dust settles, we could have 4--Legette, Brooks, Sanders, and Wallace--I see all 4 starting soon.

Is it too soon to start talking playoff bye?

Young is bailing out of the pocket a bit too soon. Happy feet. Vs.2nd team--but we have Jordan Matthews (hope he makes team) , Zavala, and Raym playing. Not sure about Legette--so I am pleased with Bryce--his reads are solid so far--just needs to trust the pocket a second longer--this, however, could be the design--2.7 seconds and get out of there. I dunno

Zavala and Raym in. Zavala looked good on the play I watched him

By the way, I have dibs on Mima Kimes should she decide to part ways with her husband---she might the perfect woman.

I hate the Saints--hate them more than any other team--but I have always loved Cam Jordan as a player and person.

you all know that the #1 ranked QB in the nation (who happens to be Beck, not Sanders) can change a lot. Some underdog will surface (like Burrow, Nix) and some sure fire #1 overall will drop (Howell, Rattler, e.g.)---About Sanders--can you imagine dealing with his father and him during contract negotiations? Yikes. I like UGA's Beck, and there are about two or three sleepers who could step up this year. Ewers, for example. My dark horses? Donovan Smith, Houston, Will Howard, Ohio State, and my favorite--Jalon Daniels, Kansas (needs to stay healthy). However, any of these QBs could emerge as a top 10 draft pick: Dart (Ole Miss), Milroe (Bama) or Gabriel (Oregon). So many names we just do not know that well due to the transfer portal, but there is some strong potential. I still hope Bryce becomes the guy. Now or never.

Good stuff Frank

Second rounder -- Clemson I think. He played his rookie season a lot and never saw the field much after that+

I think they finished preseason

I had the same thought. And he is a pass catcher, which reduces his hits--they are unlikely to leave him in the backfield to block on pass plays--

definitely cause for concern.

We often make our personnel decisions from the heart based on appearances and "common sense." However, I have learned that what you think you know through observation is not always reliable knowledge. By converting performance-based measurement to statistics and then to visual graphs, you can better understand the big picture, probability and likely outcomes. This is what we do in Education research every day. CMC and RBs peak early, so even though the Niners are getting a ton out of CMC, his age is now becoming significant. I will use fantasy stats / article to demonstrate the point--why trading him and that contract may have been the best decision for the Panthers in the long term--time will tell. CMC is 28--the year before most RBs significantly drop off. Just a different perspective, but this is why I have always said, "never give a RB a second contract." Yes, there are exceptions, but if you base decisions on exceptions or isolated comparisons, you are being stupid--in the research world. https://apexfantasyleagues.com/peak-age-nfl-running-back/#:~:text=The oldest players to accomplish the feat were,place at age 29 – a noticeable drop-off.
