Coples to Rams

I wanted Coples bad and thought he fit what we needed (pass rushing 4-3 DE with size, young) that fit DG's mold (reclamation project, upside, budget-friendly).  Given his UNC ties, thought Coples would be a good add, but In DG we trust.

Funny how the DE musical chairs continues......

Rams OUT: Chris Long  - Rams IN: Quinton Coples

Patriots OUT: Chandler Jones - Patriots IN: Chris Long

Cardinals IN: Chandler Jones

Between Price, Personality, Position, and Playing Time, I wouldn't rule out Personality as the big reason we didn't sign him. Gettleman wants players who hate losing, and Coples has that rep in the NFL of not trying hard

Obviously many Panther fans are Chapel Hill fans, while many are also not.  I get the vibe the Panthers FO is neutral at best with that school, and certainly don't let that sway their opinion.

    • why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.   
    • McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
    • he doesn't have the arm to make all the throws, the premier QBs make.  That's a fact.   So there are plays that won't exist for him that will for others.    To act like every QB in the NFL can make all the same throws isn't a stance anyone actually takes.....yet folks are doing it for Bryce.
