It's also possible they're not even strategizing and will in fact do just that.  

I've said before that while smokescreens certainly happen, they're probably not as common as people think.

Fans see smokescreens everywhere, but not everything every team says or does is a lie.

ok, if you say so

doesn't change the fact the point of my post was that it's not a crazy idea to think they are trying to show heavy interests in the top 3 QBs for a reason outside of taking one of the top 3 QBs.

Would I put money on that, probably not, but that doesn't mean there isn't a chance of that happening.

Dude, seriously......do you think they are shrewd enough for that? My God, think about how much info leaks from that place.

We have people there. What else should we be doing about a guy who isn’t a just in case. It’s one thing if we had a 3rd and thought maybe he can fall out of the 2nd. We effectively have pick 6 and a pick right before the 5th round.

Some of these criticisms are borderline ridiculous and I was on the dump Rhule, don’t want to watch much in 2022. Since we haven’t gutted our team yet for a vet QB and added a couple pieces (maybe just 1 since Bozeman is a 1 year) to the OL, I’m interested in who we get at 6.

Due diligence on Ridder has been done, likely way more than necessary.

None of this was a criticism of Matt Rhule or the Panthers.

David Newton made a suggestion that the Panthers absence didn't necessarily mean disinterest.

I countered that it could.

Malik sorta flicked it effortlessly while Ridder had to MAXIMUM EFFORT it. In the end you are talking 3 or 4 throws a season that would go that far. 

I've never cared that much about  who can throw it the farthest.

It's not about throwing it far or hard. It's about throwing it to a spot and making it catchable.

As long as they've got adequate arm strength to do that, I don't really care whether they can throw it farther than Uncle Rico.

Lol he absolutely did not effortlessly flick it. He put his entire ass into it, just like Ridder did. Maybe that’s what it seems like from the video but nobody at any level effortlessly throws a football 70 yards

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
