Expected a LB but oh well. Huge dude who gets ST tackles 

We seem to be running out of ammunition for my predicted LG / LB trades.

I wonder if we're actively trying to trade some of the guys we're about to cut.

I'd be on the phone to Detroit about their WR situation if I was Fitterer. David Moore looks mighty tempting right about now.

I'm indifferent to this move... I assume there is a need that us arm-chair GMs don't see.

With that said - this arm-chair GM wishes it had been a OT.  I see that Greg Little not only is going to make the Miami roster but may start...  Hoping we don't end up looking stupid there. 

 

Did you watch him against the Bengals?  The same revolving door. Going to get Tua killed. No, we're not going to look stupid on that one.

I would not worry about draft picks in 2022 until April.  I think, if Darnold does well, we will trade back and get a few picks.

We may only need a G, C, and LB.  To be had in rounds 2-3.

I have spoken.

Eh, you need to take your crystal ball in for a tune up or return it to Big Lots...it's obviously defective.

I did which is why I was confused to read he may be their starter.

I'd be willing to part with David Moore for a LG especially... with TMJ emerging I don't know how many snaps and/or targets on offense he will actually see.

I don't think the team views LB as big a need as we fans do.  

RG is actually one of the positions with decent depth with Miller & Brown... LG is atrocious (I was really hoping Daley was going to win the job)

Man I bet he’s pissed goes from super bowl team to bottom of league team.

No, he's excited to be on a team where he will get some playing time, b/c that is his ticket to get paid.

For the most part, I think only veterans who have made some money have the luxury of thinking that way... most NFL players know (or learn quickly) that the NFL is a business more than anything, and getting a SB as a fringe roster player may be great, but his agent is reminding him that he may be pawning that same ring in 10-20 years if he can't make some money...

I think that is much more of a thing in the NBA where basically everyone is making stupid money at this point b/c the rosters are so small.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
