Voted on by the players, so it sounds like they might have a bit of insight. 
 

The most notable current player in the NFL that went to UNC is the trivia answer to “What QB will forever be known as the guy the Bears massively reached on ahead of Future Hall of Famer Patrick Mahomes”?

Don’t bring Mitch in to this. It’s not his fault he went to a terrible organization. What do you think is gonna happen to Justin Fields? 
 

who is the wake player on the top 100 list (lol)?

I just googled it: Jesse bates coming in at #90. Never heard of the guy. Probably why the Bengals are so crappy - they are starting wake forest players

Bengals are 3-1, just like we are. It’s ok if you don’t know the NFL outside of the panthers, just stick with UNC sports. I give you credit at least for knowing about UNC football, most UNC fans like the basketball team and pick Alabama as their football team.

The current kicker for Stanford is from Western Alamance High School here in NC as well. He went to Stanford because his dad went there. He was kicking 45 yard field goals in high school. He kicked a field goal and 4 PAT’s in the 27-24 win over Oregon Saturday. He is only a sophomore. Would love to have him as well.

Oh come on. This isn’t true and you know it. Every UNC grad and UNC fan I know cares deeply and supports fully the football team. But Carolina basketball is in a league of its own and is the crown jewel, the holy grail, of college hoops. 
 

You should probably ask EZU if they even know who the coach of their hoops team is, Duke football fans (lol), Bama basketball fans, and hell even Wake Forest basketball probably is struggling to fill seats.

Your level of denial is hilarious 😂

He doesn’t have range over 50 and can’t get kickoffs to the end zone. He’s probably not an NFL kicker unless he can increase his range pretty significantly unfortunately. At minimum you would need a punter who can double as kickoff specialist and you’d have to be ok with never kicking over 50 yard FGs

College kickers don’t kick over 50 very often, you’d have to see what his actual range is, a college team not letting him kick over 50 isn’t the same him as him not being able to kick over 50

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
