Nah. Fitt and Rhule will take Howell or Pickett this year and win just enough games to be out of the sweepstakes as Rhule gets year 4.

Well if that happens we’re not drafting another QB in R1 next year. We’re a shitty organization but we’re not Cardinals level shitty (current year excluded).

Only if we trade up. He's going 1 most likely and we'll probably win 4-6 games and pick somewhere in the 6-9 range. Fug

What has happened to make you think we will be better next year than the past 2? This is a legit, honest question.

We are picking 6th this year with an OL that can't get much worse, a QB that can't get much worse, and one of our best offensive weapons might play more this year.

Also if you reverse our one score games this year (switch the wins to losses and losses to wins) we would have been 9-8 and probably made the playoffs.  You can't reverse them, and maybe we aren't good enough to win close games but it shows how close teams are.

This is college football, the line between winning and losing is a lot smaller than fans realize.

I'm not saying we are going to be a good football team but I would count on us having the #1 pick.

But Brees was considered short and a lot of people thought he needed a really good OL (which he had most of his career) to help his downfield vision. Not sure if we’re the right place for that.

I’m hoping a year from now we have an adequate line. Moton, Brady, our first round pick this year and a free agent.  Cant build Rome in a day but let’s lay some foundation for the empire.

  The schedule will be much harder than the slew of backup, rookies, and just poor QBs from this year. Only Matt Ryan was a decent QB they won against. Wilson, Mills, McCoy, and the most inconsistent QB maybe ever(Winston). Next year is the NFC West and AFC North. Burrow, Jackson, Mayfield,(Steelers), Stafford, Murray, Wilson, Garrapolo(Lance). I wouldn’t count on one score flips to make a team better that has very little resources to accomplish that.

To the people in this thread and elsewhere who think we'll take Howell, Pickett

poo if we do though we actually have someone who has a history if spotting the shitty/good ones so that's about the only hope in that department

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
