Meh. If we take a QB I'll hope for the best whoever he is. I don't have much faith in this regime to develop a young quarterback. Even if it's Willis who I like. But the hype may be getting carried away here already. We should all adjust our expectations and not forget the circumstances.

There are some great looking Uglies this year.

And I'm worried that just like so many other years, we're going to miss out on them 🤬

This is a really awesome OL class in the top rounds, not just the top-3.  Although the top-3 tackles in Ekwonu, Neal & Cross  are top talent in their own right.

Kenyon Green (LOVE), Linderbaum (LOVE), Kinnard (LOVE), Zion Johnson, Salyer, it's such a good interior class.

How is Fitts going to save the team from itself? Either he's a yes man with no power, or he's part of the problem based off the trades and free agents that has been made since he's joined the team.

He’s not on the hot seat next year. The entire coaching staff is.

Will they force him to make draft choices that are not in the long term interest of the team? That’s the question.

Thier job is to win next year or they’re gone. His job is to keep the team competitive over the long term.

Well in a QB year Rhule went DB

so in a OT year he will go somewhere else

Yes, I trust Fitterer much more so than a bunch of guys who know their jobs are on the line.    Rhule and his entire staff understand they need to get players who will help them next season, not guys who are best for the team in the distant future.   The coaches Panther lifetime is 12 months long.  That's it.  Anything after then is irrelevant to them.  And that timeline is just a recipe for disaster with impulsive, short sighted decisions.  

It's another reason to justify taking player control away from Rhule.

overall I think GMs and HCs should be tied together.  Exceptions to that but overall I think it is best.  

find a pair that works and give them a run.  When it ends, it ends.   Not real keen on Rhule flaming out and then keeping a GM that flamed out with Rhule.

I think I'm coming around to this. I'm largely someone that thinks Fitterer isn't even 10% the problem that Rhule is, but I also think he knew when accepting the job he would be playing second fiddle to Rhule. If this season is a trainwreck, fire them both by Thanksgiving, find your GM and let him pick his coach.

🤣 Some of these responses.

I have an open mind. Not my first choice, but...Gotta take a swing to hit or miss.

We have a one pick in the top 100….and are going to draft a day 2 caliber QB with a top 10 pick? 

that’s a swinging at a pitch in the dirt

      Around the 11:15 mark, I think I see what triggered the unsportsmanlike penalty on Canales. I'm not overly familiar with sideline rules but that seemed really ticky tacky.

      Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

      The crux of the issue is figuring out if he can be more consistent will cost us more. A lot more. The options as I see them now: Trade him Pro: We get something in return. No further financial liability.  Con: We must find a new guy + backup via FA/draft and they may not be cheap and/or could be worse than Young (see McCarthy). Young could be the next Darnold/Mayfield on another team, which means it's an organizational issue with (lack of) QB development. Fifth Year - No extension Pro: Gives us more time to evaluate and build up roster. Have a natural exit plan if he doesn't pan out.  Con: We get nothing for him in return if we let him go. We risk a Daniel Jones scenario where Bryce plays lights out, skyrocketing the cost of his extension. Extend now Pro: Provides stability for the near future. May be able to get a more reasonable contract number now since his stats don't scream franchise QB yet and/or structure it to where we give ourselves an out. Con: Bryce's agent demands whatever CJ Stroud will end up getting. We're hitching our wagon to him for at least a year or two. Cost of getting out of the contract. Likely ties Canales' fate to Young.

      I hope Wallace can develop but he's a liability as a starting LB at this point. He didn't take the rookie to sophomore leap I was hoping he would.
