So you don't like them because they didn't like BC?

Oh I like them, if anything its the opposite.   I liked them MORE after they came out against BC.  Before I would listen to them from time to time, now I'm subscribed.  Its hard to find good in depth reviews on BC.  After the draft review on CP3 when they railed on the Brady pick, I wanted to understand why.   They essentially dedicated a whole show to him.  So I took their advice and watched the film they said to watch and what to look for.     Its a great podcast. 

They just do NOT like BC.  Part of it is legitimate, part of it was just because he wasn't on their board.  They admit they didn't watch much tape on him until after the draft.

I just enjoy watching PNP Rashad and Dave more.

Mind you, I do believe Walker will have a chance to be a starter again around 2023.

 

 

That's when the XFL is scheduled to start back up.

I just find it odd how people selectively fixate on shitting on PJ Walker......given what the rest of the QB roster looks like.  Like....why?

he is a backup QB....who came in and did his job the one time he was asked to start.   

if you are talking about PJ Walker.....it's a sign there are much bigger issues IMO.   Which we saw last year.   The bigger issue was we brought in someone to start that wasn't a NFL starter.

It has a lot to do with the fact that he's not good, honestly probably not even "backup good".

He's not an NFL quarterback. I'd be way more comfortable with a better backup, but I don't know if we're gonna get one.

Okay....but the reason people are talking about PJ Walker is because there are bigger and more important problems.  So.....why not just fixate on that.  The problem.   It's what I wanted to do in the draft.   Add starting QB talent/potential. 

and the NFL is full of guys that aren't good enough to start.  Basically every team has PJ Walkers.  That's why they are called backups.   Which is what PJ is. 

The problem isn't PJ Walker.  The problem is who Matt Rhule keeps designating as his starting QB.   PJ is getting heat from those that want to deflect from the real issue IMO.

The most accurate representation of our backup QB situation I've seen is someone saying we have two third stringers fighting for a second string spot.

I'd prefer one solid second stringer over both of them.

well, realistically, the only reason people really talk about backup QBs .....is because of the problem that exists at the starting spot. 

yeah, you talk about it if your QB gets hurt.  That's gonna happen.

But if you are freaking out about PJ Walker in July?  Well.....it's really a Sam Darnold conversation.   I'd prefer we just focus on fixing the starting QB spot instead of debating how good you think a 2nd or 3rd string QB is.

      a tip of the cap to the Special Juan

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
