We don't know who we are drafting yet?

Does anybody else think it's weird that we don't know who we are drafting yet. We always know usually by now because Marty has told the whole NFL. Maybe he is finally not making the picks? Sure hope he is on the way out.

If someone like you knows who the pick is going to be then we are in a whole lotta trouble

This is exactly why no one likes carrying on conversations anymore on the huddle. Because of smartass people like you.

I can’t recall EVER knowing who the pick was going to be with the lone exception of Cam, and there was still speculation we were going to draft someone else.

For having the #1 pick, it was very strange at the time not actually knowing who the pick was before the draft.  Before then it seemed most teams already were working out contracts for the #1 pick before draft day. 

Richardson was pushing hard for McCaffery so I think everyone knew, if he was there we would take him

Apparently, Steven doesn’t understand the difference between want and knowing.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
