Cam would likely be a hall of famer even if he retired after 2019 due to injuries, his peak was that impressive and his rushing stats and overall impact on the field when he was healthy here were historic. When you have a hall of fame QB on your team who was 1st overall pick, essentially singlehandedly changed the outlook of the franchise from day 1 and was the face of the franchise for nearly a decade, that deserves getting a number retired.

Had Cam led us to a SB win, notched a second MVP, was still here, and helped us have back to back winning seasons ... you can argue his number is off limits. But none of that happened.

If he did all of that, you’d extend the goalposts.

Sorry, but I wouldn't retire jerseys of players who havent won a SB. And, I love Cam, Luke, et al. Ring of Honor, definitely! 

So had we won Super Bowl 50, we would be retiring Philly Brown, Jericho Cotchery, Mike Remmers, Michael Oher, etc. But can’t retire Smith, Peppers, etc because they didn’t win? Makes so much sense.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
