So this is what happens when GM’s and HC’s are trying to save their jobs.  They reach against the strength of drafts. Hurney traded up to get Little.  And in this list he is only one step Isiah Wilson who I have seen mocked in the 3rd round.
No better reason we are in the current situation with our rosters.  Hurney has constantly not taken advantage of position strength of drafts.

You can only draft the players in the draft that year.  Teams cannot possibly look forward.  This is why I think the whole concept of "Tank for Trevor" is so asinine.  What if TL has a career ending injury this year?  Even a career threatening injury that the outcome is uncertain for.  Stupid.

Draft according to your grades on the players available that year.

I don't think we will have a problem being top 5 next year either way. Tanking I think just makes people feel we are in control of that some way.

While I get the intention,... no one really knows who is going to boom or bust....

look at all the booms and busts against professional and fan wants each year.

jonah Williams for example may turn out to be as solid as his draft ranking— he didn’t get a chance with injury. Time will tell.  I’m sure if any had a crystal ball and knew he would get hurt he would have fell to the 5th round or worst.

no one knows.

To the guys credit in his same positional rankings he did predict the biggest bust potential as Funchess and Kelvin, in each's draft year. But I agree, its a crapshoot.

  I remember being “pounded” on for even suggesting  last year’s LT class was poor. Hmmm.....
 

  It doesn’t take a crystal ball......

To be fair, that was pretty much the consensus opinion of the draftniks and the scouting community.

  Not on here. Like you said, it was never a secret. But with a need at the position, the usual “overrating” of any potential Panther has to be done.

Yeah, I mean, every fan base does that. It just goes with the territory.

  Of course. But having ones opinion blasted by highly biased fans with little to no knowledge of the sport is always a treat. 
 

my favorite was that I hated the SEC because I didn’t think Greg Little was a good pick. LOL!!’

      Ekwonu doesn’t get dog walked under 2 minutes in the 4th, we drive, kick a FG and win

      A lot of young QB's struggle with holding on to the ball top long. He has gotten better progressively in that regard. Pocket Time(in Sec):  2.5(2023), 2.3(2024), 2.2(2025) Time to Throw(in Sec): 2.9(2023), 2.79(2024), 2.82(2025) The divedends have been fairly small, is the issue.

      If you can only fire ONE person before 2026....

      I'm firing DC, though I think it actually makes the job less attractive. He's not prepared to be a HC and it's showed. A new HC is not going to be tied automatically to BY. He's going to want to bring in some level of competition in the QB room because anyone who has ever watched football knows our QB room is lacking. If he doesn't, that tells a more interesting tale of who's really calling the shots.  Dave hasn't been decisive enough in game and that leadership council BS has trust fall vibes. Our offense has been pathetically stale and vanilla. Our run game while good has made no sense based on who has been playing best. Our defense is improved but they can't be expected to hold opposing teams to below 17 a game because our offense can't score consistently.  We've beaten some teams we shouldn't have beaten, specifically GB and the Rams, and I think our record doesn’t accurately reflect where the team and the coaching really is. We've fallen flat against a geriatric rookie QB leading a 2-10 NO team and got our ass handed to us TWICE. We're unprepared for the biggest games.  This is what happens though when real coaching candidates turn down interviews because your owner is a narcissistic butthole. You get someone no one else bothered to call and you get the results everyone else would have expected if they had.

      The Saints would be 2-12 if not for us. We are 50% of their wins. A organization serious about the playoffs does not get bullied by a sh*t team like the Saints TWICE. It's over my brotha.
