I think Rivera just tipped our hand that Cotchery is gone. He said KB, Funchess, Olsen, Dicksen, Ginn, and Brown create match-up nightmares. Gettleman had to chime in with 'don't discount Cotchery."

Sounds like Smith, Preston, and Golden were right there on our board by the presser as well. 

 

Yep. He said we had 5 guys we wanted, and they started dropping like flies so they felt they had to move up or they would have no one to pick. Considering we moved up right after Devin Smith was picked, I think he was a target.

Jeremy can you weigh in on what you think they had Strong rated at? If Funchess was a first round guy I'm wondering what they had Strong at considering he didn't go until 70. Was the difference between Funchess and Strong worth giving up our 3rd? Maybe they're seeing something I'm not.

The fact that we could have had Strong, the far superior WR in my opinion, without giving up picks to move up is the twist of the dagger.

      No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad

      I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle.

      Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
