He would make us a legit backfield.

Bravo! I certainly don't know how guys think that we're going to "stink" this year. I'm not saying that we won't, but the DBs were ranked in the low 20s as a unit (according to Chat), so I don't easily see us getting any worse; we should be better. The D-line improvement should help the backfield out a lot, and Jackson and Horn know what they're doing. The older vets we acquired shouldn't take too long to make their presence felt, and we have a couple of promising youngsters in Smith-Wade and Ransom. How do we not make at least a slight to modest improvement from last year?

Oh yeah, and so much for not being him...

I find this discussion somewhat interesting. I have eclectic music tastes. I don't care for genuine gangsta rap all that much, but I dabble here and there due to my son. Personally, I listen to mash-ups a lot between country and hip-hop. This isn't even necessarily a good one (from what I'll call a lyric-transition standpoint ), but it has GloRilla in it. Some of the mash-ups are a lot better though.

I mean, I've heard the same thing about him from a woman, so...beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I've also heard you g kids say she is attractive. I think that her persona is somewhat...uh, thuggeg-ou-err, masculine...and that may cloud or even define perceptions of her in the minds of many, especially older guys. I try to get past it.

"I still miss Joey Slye."

I mean, you can't help but think she's rapping about X with those lyrics. Plenty of people think so. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjqLcCwd/ This is hilarious, BTW.

Oh, you're not wrong, but both can be true: Chuba Hubbard did in fact improve, but he was always better than many---if not most---Huddlers gave him credit for. Most players worth their weight in gold are going to improve, but my thing is that sometimes fans need to chill and be patient.

Bububut Chubs is JAG...No, he was making the most out of a badly sub par O-line. That being said, I hope Etienne gives him a run for his money.

Money matters, and six figures, especially doubled, is a big deal for most of these kids. If invested correctly, it can set them up for a comfortable retirement in later years.

I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

You'd think that after his Super Bowl performance all that talk would've died, but I guess that it's super easy to hold on to draft position bias.

Completion rate, yards, and 20 TDs aren't really black and white stats. He was 7th in total QBR. He has the 7th highest pay per season. He's also getting paid for his total body of work, not just last season's stats (where the entire team was obviously down due to injuries).

Yep. My son is almost 6'4", and 220 is a good size. 240+ is suspect for most.

6'4 and 220 is a decent size. I guess some of you want a fatty. All he has to do to get stronger is get in the weight room.

Nine to Eleven Wins. Bank on it.

I sacrifice greatly, even to this day, and should have that kind of money by the third quarter of 2026. I saved money to free up my time, and by next year, I won't be spending money to save time, I should have all the time in the world to figure out how to spend (and invest) even more money. Not tryna preach, but I have been taught to make Proverbs 13:22 a guiding princple. God has blessed me to be in the company of some influential people. As a result, I'm on my way to legitimate generational wealth.

You gotta think big, bro. That being said, there are much better and more meaningful ways to drop 10K.

That's basically it. Some here talking about this and that. At this point in his career, teams already know what they're getting. The first round stuff has long past. He's been a solid player nonetheless, even for us. But there always comes a time when age begins to catch up with you. We're obviously making the room younger, and that's the priority as it should be. Joining a contender as a good rotational piece is probably the best thing that he can do if he wants to make an impact and maybe even get a ring.

This guy will always be the original T-Mac. But if Tetairoa wants to be the second T-Mac in sports, I guess that will work too. I may just have to get used to Nalo.

This had more to do with T-Mac and his positional value and the dynamics of this draft than Walker. Just accept it. There's really not too much to see here.
