Congrats to Al, but I did not expect him to be in that high of demand this early.  That is surprising.  Also, after his "willing to play for a discount," comment here, i wonder if we even showed any interest?  Not that I wanted him back, because I didn't, lol.

i wouldnt be surprised if Marvin gave us a hometown discount and came in at $10-11mil.. he knows we need 1-2 other players (backup PG and defensive C) to be a legit contender in the East.. he was the only one in exit interviews that expressed absolute feelings of wanting to come back for sure

At that price I wouldn't be so upset but 12-17 million makes me sick to my stomach.

The first year Al was amazing.  The last two years was ugly.  He had some great games for us these last two years, and will miss that low post scoring ability, but this isnt much of a big loss as people will make it out to be.  Right now we sit at Kemba, Batum, MKG, Frank, Cody starting (with the strong possibility of Marvin being added soon) and a bench of Bellinelli, Lamb, Daniels and Hawes to name a few.  Grab a backup PG and a defensive stopping C and we will still be right there.  We have pretty much added a big FA in MKG, so the three of Kemba-Batum-MKG will be one of the best backcourts in the NBA.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
