just sitting here looking forward to seeing who the next NY Jet castoff is that we randomly just give a ton a cash to. 

Luvuu has looked pretty damn good this season. I think we paid him the least amount out of all the castoffs so it only makes sense that he’s the only one helping us.

The truth is always somewhere in between

Anderson clearly isn't this bad of a WR.  But he also clearly isn't the potential #1 guy that people were trying to act like he was last year.

He's an okay to solid #2 WR who can stretch defenses.  Horrible fit with Darnold, because he needs a QB with consistent ball placement.

I knew giving Robbie money was a bad idea. It was such a Hurney move, and people here loved it at the time. Also, it’s looking like we should have kept Arnold to keep Darnold on track. Another move that didn’t totally excite me. Can I get a shot at GM here?

I never loved it. I wanted them to let Robby play out his deal and then decide. Resigning him was dumb and he only got the contract because of the college he went to. We had him signed for this year and he is getting older and we drafted a guy to replace him. 

IF we were going to pay a WR we should have kept Samuel.

I've railed about this before, but Robby Anderson did next to nothing after week 5 last season, missed the OTAs, most of the offseason, good portion of training camp (if I recall correctly) and has done nothing outside of one long TD catch this entire season. 

How in the hell do you sit down and write the guy a multi-year, multi-million dollar contract during a rebuild?

And he's playing even worse since the contract was signed. We thought he was here to play football, but he had a whole other game planned.

well thank God he went to Temple, otherwise we wouldn't get to enjoy it for three more years!

That's the sad and pathetic part on matt rhule I keep talking about.  I don't get why we have to have so many of his former college players on the panthers roster. It kinda makes him look weak and a "yes man" to them.  Alot of them were cut by other Teams but they conveniently found their way to Carolina.

I know you’re saying if we had to pay a WR, but I wouldn’t have paid anyone until we need to pay Moore honestly. We need to put that money elsewhere like OL

Rhule just wants to hand out contracts to his former college players. What an idiotic way to run an NFL franchise

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.

      Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.

      I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
