I guess if you want to deny reality, all you can do is do the opposite and pretend like Bell is actually worth something.

Or...we can embrace reality, and believe that the folks that do this for a living actually have faith in Bell.

Nah...

good job...I would have forgotten all that and just posted a Hayden gif.

 

Its funny, our body is actually wired to release chemicals that actually stimulate our brain to remember memories more clearly when you do something that makes you feel like your having the best time of your life, something I imagine shooting the poo with an NFL player would trigger. That's why its hard to forget the first time you had sex even though you forgot you made for dinner last week.. unless it was taco night.

Oh well, just checked in to say this story checks out as OP has posted a follow up with pics.

All I got from this is Kony Ealy is a project as the 2nd round pick and will not make an immediate impact. That the DE depth is weaker than we know.
 
If this is the case, then we blew it in the draft. Your picks in the first 3 rounds should be players that can impact the team in year 1 whether it be as a starter or a backup.
 
These wide receivers:
Allen Robinson
Jarvis Landry
Donte Moncrief
 
Or these offensive tackles:
Morgan Moses
Billy Turner
 
All of them would have made an immediate impact for the Panthers with the second round pick.
 
I hope this source is wrong, because that means the Panthers did not pick the BPA with the 2nd round pick.

You know for sure they would make an immediate impact?

Ok.........

No... no it's not

And just to elaborate a little more but they are both rbs a position that has been devalued for a few years now, both have ridiculous cap hits, and neither has gone over 1k yards since 09...thats 5 years ago so yea its pretty easy to hate on them especially when one of them rides a bike for a living

Kinda glad we didn't take Moses. By all accounts he's not showing out to be the sure fire stud some huddlers had a hard on for.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
