Signs point to the Bucs taking a QB with their pick.(Gabeking hates title)

It's Panthers Related since it pertains one of our NFC South rivals. The Bucs much like other teams with new regimes, are not going to commit to the last brass' QB.
 
Our situation was very different since we had a very talented young QB and a decent head coach. Glad Gettleman evaluated the situation and kept both.
 
The bucs on the other hand with the arrival of Lovie have completely over-hauled their team. They have made several key additions to their club and now with the draft, sitting in the top 10. They are more than likely getting a QB to groom behind McCown.

 

Who, is the question. I'm willing to bet Manziel will be the pick. It is something that come with the territory. If the bucs actually choose a QB in the first and other QB needy teams do the same.

 

This bodes well for our team. Other skill position players will fall and cause a chain reaction that will shift the flex pool of talent further and further. Impacting our first two picks. Here's hoping they pick a QB, besides, having another QB that helps the Bucs become relevant will only make it that much sweeter when we beat their ass this coming season again.

Ok, hear me out.  I'm probably waaaaay off and this is totally my opinion.  But does anyone feel like if Mike Glennon wasn't so fugin ugly, he'd be the guy in Tampa right now?  I mean seriously, the guy couldn't possibly become the face of the franchise and put people in the seats could he?  I know that their coaching staff is new and with that, usually comes new faces.  But, he played pretty well actually.  13 games, 59.4 completion percentage, 2608 yards, 19 TDs, and 9 ints, for a rookie thrown into the fire.  There aren't enough good QBs for everyone to have one.  So isn't it better to build off something decent, instead of playing qb carousel every year?  I don't know, they think he's ugly and don't want him to be their face.

ps, I think it's great that Tampa is starting this poo show.  I'd like to see Glennon do well in the AFC.

The Ginger Giraffe is better than any QB in this draft.

Donald seems like the perfect fit with Lovie at the helm. Evans is also a real possibility with only Jackson worth mentioning on the roster.

 

I don't see Manziel lasting to their pick and I think some teams are gonna regret passing on him if they do. They are also paying McCown 5 mill a season over the next 2 years. Its bad enough that addition will stunt Glennons growth who actually showed potential, drafting another QB high would really just be a bad decision IMO.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
