Yea who hell is so dumb that they thought this was true anyway when it was reported forever ago that other teams were kicking the tires for SD too. Like FFS this site has always had some 'winners' but lately its just bwhahahahahaha you believe in flat earth level.

Like I said, taking a flyer on him for a mid to late pick or two was fine.  Giving then a second for him is what gives me huge pause...  especially now knowing there were no other bidders.

With it being next years it doesn’t sting as much. It might if it turns out to be a horrible signing.  I’m no that high on Darnold but dammit he is my QB now so I will run with it.  Let’s see what Brady and Rhule can  do with him.

The optimism will quickly fade when y’all have to sit through 17 Sundays with Sam Darnold under center. This board will be in total meltdown mode by October 1st over this shitty signing. 

What optimism? The Panthers have 2 division wins since 2019 with Cam Newton Kyle Allen and Teddy Bridgewater. Most people seem to understand we are not a good football team. It's been a rough time for Charlotte sports but they can at least give us a team with some fight. We were not going to get that with a two yards and a cloud of dust passer like Bridgewater and if Darnold isn't it then it is on to the next.

Actually it's been reported multiple teams were interested at one point when the price was too high and they were asking for a 1st or second. After free agency, after the 49ers trade, and after andy dalton there just wasn't any suitors left besides us. 

 

In other words we let the market settle and still got our guy.  Smart

As long as it doesn’t impede our vision of what we COULD get in a falling lance or fields, I like the move. One of those two happen to fall, have yourself a Qb competition and be in a much better place.

Nowhere is it written that if either fall to 8 we don't take him. 

IMO this will be a historic draft.  4 QBs in the first 4 picks.   Regardless of who is left (Fields, Lance or Jones) someone is going to trade up ahead of us to grab that last QB.

Supposedly, we are picking up his 5th year option.  Two years to evaluate.  If he sucks at the end of 2 years we'll have Bridgewater off the books and a fresh start.  If he plays well next year we sign him to a long term contract.

      2025 College Football Thread

      I just don't know that he has the time to turn it around at his age. His age is going to be a major strike against him in the recruiting trail and it's just a tough row to hoe to turn a football program around. One good recruiting class can turn around a basketball team. Hell, one individual recruit can turna around a basketball team - Carmelo Anthony basically won a national championship single handedly at Syracuse. Cam at Auburn is the only college who even comes close to that type of impact off the top of my head. A good recruiting class is 2-3 years down the road from significantly impacting a college football program... if you can actually keep them around. The instant impact is in the portal but everyone else is chasing those guys too. If I was building a college program, I'd focus almost exclusively on the trenches starting out. To me, that's the big difference in college. The better teams dominate the trenches. There's just a LOT more talent disparity at the college level than there is the NFL level. The worst teams in the NFL are still full of guys who were all conference or all American at the college level. The gap between the best team in the NFL and the tenth best team in the NFL is pretty small. A couple of plays might be the difference. The #1 team in the country is probably going to be a 10 point favorite over the #10 team at the college level. The gap on talent between the #1 team and the #32 team is a massive gulf. The #1 team's backups would be competitive against the #32 team. I just don't know if Belichick after a career in the NFL was prepared for the level of talent disparity he was going to face.

      Saints just released a good safety

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I wouldn't drop David Moore, honestly. Moore, while long in the tooth and light in production, is about the only veteran presence in the WR room now and the only one with extensive experience with what Canales wants and needs. And that's probably why he made the roster. Still, aging safeties who might make a decent gunner just aren't where you want to spend your money and roster spots. Even at vet minimum, he's not going to be as cheap or maybe as trainable as some UDFA who would run through a brick wall for a roster spot for rookie league minimum and a chance.
