If you look at Beane's moves individually, they seem kind of hit or miss.

The Bills are winning though. Only game they've lost so far this year was to the Patriots, and even there they gave them arguably a better game than anyone else has.

Well the other 4 teams the Patriots have played are a combined 1-17 so not a lot of competition there

Taking Star away from us was a great move. He has been a monster for them.

To be fair all of those guys mentioned - especially Hardy were pretty good in college. 

Hardy was playing under Lincoln Riley at the time which made him look a lot better than he was.

Lincoln is just on another level. Once he left, ECU football crashed and burned.

I wanted Hardy back then (West Craven HS grad and ECU grad) and I feel like he has had the short end of the stick due to the team that drafted him that have already had great WO depth already.

I swear JHardy has some sticky hands if I ever seen for WO.

Hardy’s hands are probably always sticky due to a side effect of having to take so many antibiotics for VD he acquired from the EZU skanks known to slug around G-Vegas.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
