I was kind of upset when reading this. I had an overwhelming nostalgic moment thinking back to some of our rookies fantastic seasons. I mean, how could anyone not remember the best season ever by a quarterback by Cam newton? Luke Kuechly leading the league in tackles? Star Lotulelei havin the best run stop percentage at one point? How about Julius Peppers taking the league by storm? Or even the phenom that is Steve Smith, that contributed right away as a returner.

 

Alas, not even one player made the honorable mentions.

 

(P.S. If you read the comments, beware of Eric Wagner if you don't want to get mad.)

Cam wasn't even an honorable mention.  Lol, Matt Ryan gets an honorable mention for doing nothing but handing the ball off to Michael Turner, and Big Ben for being drafted to a stacked team... but the greatest QB rookie season of all time doesn't get an honorable mention.

 

I expected Dan Marino to be the one to get the QB spot, but it's retarded that Matt Ryan is even mentioned yet Cam isn't.

Toughest competition: Sammy Baugh, Bob Waterfield, Otto Graham, Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Ryan, Russell Wilson.

 

 

 

lol wut

 

Yeah, a few of those names (Russell Wilson, Matt Ryan) are hilarious indeed. LOL

 

And of course, Big Ben did virtually nothing on a stacked team besides hand the ball off to Bettis (was it him). Lol

All of these lists are made up in someone's head before they are written. You think they did extensive research? It's just rose colored glasses for one idiot reporter. If you are in a bar you might say someone is the best ever at something and completely forget someone even better. Same here.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
