I'm 100% against drafting a defensive player with the first pick and I don't care who it is. We are 4 years in and the talent surrounding Cam Newton has declined every single year. We are already paying him 14.5 in 2015 and that number will only go up. That's like buying a Lamborghini and putting Walmart tires on it. This poo has to stop.

The man stood on the damn podium and said he wanted a WR. He said at the pro bowl he has faith in management to surround him with weapons and we all know what he meant.

What have people been saying all offseason? Gettleman's main goal was to surround Cam Newton with weapons. You can not afford to keep telling Cam to fug off. When Cam doesn't trust his teammates to get the job done, he turns into bad Cam. I don't have faith in Byron Bell as our starting LT or Jerricho Cotchery as our #1 WR that's fuging insane.

We were the #2 defense and one of the worst passing offenses in the league, now we have a down graded wr crew, and a worse oline, and y'all are sitting here discussing take another defensive player?? fug all that noise.

Who's our starting LT? RT? RG?, you're comfortable with our WRs as is? Or are you just they type of guy the agrees with anything this organization does? It's ok to think for yourself. Deep down you know we have one of the worst offensive rosters if you take the qb out of it.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
