"Connor is our center right now," Elway said. "I think that obviously we didn’t want to lose Matt, but we had real concerns about the ankle. That is why that didn’t work out. I’m happy for Matt. I really am. I’m happy for Matt that he got the opportunity in Carolina. It had nothing to do with Matt’s ability, but we had big concerns about that ankle. Like I said, I’m happy for Matt that he got what he got from Carolina. I hope that works out for him."

Elway and player evaluations don't mix. The guy is a classic case of someone surrounded by yes men throughout his life and now he can't make a decent decision on his own. Horse-teethed MFer was on the receiving end of that incredible comeback 'The Play" where the Cal Bears ran back a squibbed kickoff through Elway's Stanford Cardinals football team and marching band.

Elway was just left standing on the sidelines looking like an idiot savant plug mule.

Oh, and the record setting tackler on the California Bears team that helped with that miracle? Our own Coach Ron Rivera.

Sure hope Ron makes Elway look like a dipsh!t again.

What do we think he was going to say.  That there was nothing wrong and he just didn’t want to spend the money.  He was a good player.  Terrible GM.  

Im not sure what the full extent of Paradis Injury  was but if they put a rod in there it will be stronger than his other leg.  

I said it before.  I am not worried about leg fractures with guys who don’t rely on their speed.  Cornerbacks would give me a larger worry. (Cockrell)

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
