God, I really hope not. There's about 0% chance we can trade up for Burrow, and everyone else is very questionable this year. Tua would be the second best choice, but he's more injury riddled than Cam, and the Dolphins will make getting the second or third pick uber costly. So that leaves whoever you think is the third best quarterback where there is a large drop-off in talent, and polish.

In some ways getting Rhule, and especially Brady, is a somewhat of a curse. Brady could probably make anyone we draft this year look good, for this next season. Though then what? Brady becomes a head coach for another team, and we're stuck with a mediocre talent at quarterback. I hope we have someone learning under Brady ASAP that can continue his system beyond next season, because I don't have a lot of faith in drafting a quarterback this year.

It's possible to hit a on a star later, but it's not likely. Don't let recency bias get your hopes up.

what that leaves is spending picks on a strong supporting cast and throwing them to the wolves to sort out the men from the boys and tank then pick your center piece next year along with whatever failed from the draft this year and put the new qb in a great position. Not only that but more time for the coaches to get situated AND more time to get all this money off the books and have a lot of cap room to play with. 
 

you pay cmc while the new qb is on his first year contract and reevaluate when the qbs time to get paid is to come

this is a proven blueprint (see chiefs and ravens) unless you have a future HOF qb (rodgers brees Brady). It is the best possible path for the quickest turnaround and long term future. This is my preferred route and hope they go.

you can drag out the rebuild and maybe have a little success, or take a risk with cam. neither are better long term. A stop gap FA qb isn’t either...unless you luck out like the 49ers did.

people don’t want to consider this option and as a fan I get it. I don’t want to wait 2 years to enjoy Panther football again. But those who love cam so much need to realize it took a god awful 2-14 season to aquire such a player and it will most likely take that much again.

“belief” seems to be the sports world equivalent to the political right wings “some people are saying”. It lets you say whatever you want and pretend you’re reporting news rather than just disingenuously presenting your opinion.

Haha yea words like foresee, could, prediction and possible and may, could, likely... or my favorite ‘projects’ (CBS projects)...

All just opinions and spit balling. Gets annoying but hey it’s the off-season it’s all we have.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
