This season is going to be insane. Just took a look at the huddle stats and discovered for the past month there has been a 144.71%  increase in visitors to this site over the same time period last year. Interest is way up on this team, for obvious reasons.

1) Cam being named #1 in the NFL Top 100 certainly will have driven recent traffic.

2) Increased interest, yes...  

BUT ALSO all the work you've done Jeremy to get the site optimized for Google News feeds, and working on the front end.  (To say nothing of adding fascinating statistical breakdown articles, LOL....!)

In the past week or two I've noticed a lot more other twitter feeds and news outlets picking up and promoting Huddle pieces.  Even C-S-R which was notorious for ignoring the Huddle and just stealing stuff from here is beginning to link and credit pieces here in quite a reputable way.

WCNC Charlotte has picked up an article or two.   The ESPN NFL Nation Panthers blog has as well, and a few other sites I'm forgetting....

The site's looking great.  Thanks for all the work you've put in.

Really like the sidebar on the forum with the links to the main news articles and some great pictures.  That TD visor picture is just so awesome.  Gets me totally pumped for the season whenever I see it!

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
