I'm a passenger on the Corral train

Some of y'all were spot on and fair. Some of y'all...well...I just don't know what you were(n't) seeing. 

I'm glad that things worked out. I knew we'd never draft Corral in the first with one of the top tackles on the board, but not only did we get my preference at tackle, we got my guy at QB.

I just watched the Fitterer/Rhule press conference and Matt's interview.  I don't know if his skill set will transition to the NFL but I have a feeling he is going to work his ass off to prove he belongs.  The part of the interview I really like was when they were talking about his injury in the bowl game and when he came back onto the field every player rallied around him.

I could not help but think about how Jake Delhomme was with this team.   He wasn't the most talented QB but he was a gamer and the ENTIRE team was behind him.  If he can be a leader like Jake and run this offense with the talent we have.  We could end up with the steal of the draft.

I am super excited to hear about him through OTAs, minicamps, training camp and preseason.

I also hope he outshines Darnold and plays this season.   I would rather him learn this season than sitting 2022 and having to wait until 2023.  

I also hope the Panthers do well and we win.  I could care less if it saves Rhule's job or not.

We dont have a 3rd.  And qb's in the 4rth or later rounds rarely if ever work out.  Might as well use that pick on more line help and target a qb in the top 5 picks next draft.  We cannot keep wasting our picks.

I guess we did end up with something here. I didn't have Corral in my crystal ball at all, though.

We've had a #1 overall have relative success, a UDFA, now is time for a mid-rounder to pop at QB.  Long overdue having to deal with Lewis, Damien Craig, Stefon Lefors, Grier, we're due a hit one of these days.  Let it be ushered into the ethos.

I already dispelled some of the bullshit he was spewing in this post weeks ago. 

That's a guy that likes to make stuff up and act like he has inside info. Was trying to claim he had the scoop on the Watson trade a while back.

He's full of sh-t.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
