Rapoport says it could have been Pickett

Generally speaking, if you have the confidence to pick a QB at #6 overall and be a franchise Quarterback, then an LT (or any other position for that matter) isn't going to stop you from taking him.

I highly doubt this is true.

“Ultimately they decided his hands were too small and he could only hold 12oz beers, while Corral, the raging alcoholic was known previously as Matty 40 hands”- RapSheet report

These guys spew bullshit, definition of talking heads

Rhule doesn't have "final say"...

...has never had "final say"...

...and never will have "final say"...

...that inalienable right resides solely with the man who writes the checks -- the owner -- Mr. David A. Tepper 👊.

That's just the Way it is...🤘

There is so much draft speak and misdirection with teams before the draft, no one on the 4 letter network knows what each individual team is going to do for sure. They hit on an educated guess once in a while, but otherwise nahhhh.   Look at all the mock drafts and how often they are complete trash by the 4th pick or so.

It's easy after the fact for them to say this or that.

John Ellis pretty much closed the door on this, saying multiple insiders denied the idea of Pickett at six. Maybe in a trade down.

But I get it, we are supposed to hate the FO, so whatever narrative we can find to re-inforce the idea must be true.

Ellis confirms there wasn't a solid consensus on the QB spot, which is likely the best explanation for what happened behind the scenes...

We had heard that Rhule and Tepper liked Pickett. Verge said scouts liked Willis. Fitterer might have preferred Corral but not necessarily over one of the best tackles (and heaven knows he's got experience with non first round quarterbacks).

My question would be who made the final decision, and my guess would be Scott Fitterer, and if he indeed got his way over Matt Rhule, well... 🤔

The GM should get final say over the head coach for draft picks. Hopefully that is the way it went down.

Maybe they drew straws and it came up Corral? It really doesn't matter because it was a push on which one may succeed. After that they would just have to wait to see how the draft fell.

They knew Pittsburgh was taking either Pickett or Willis so those two were scratched. It was just a matter of hoping Corral made it out of the 1st. 

As the draft unfolded I was so happy that they didn't get antsy and cough up a haul for one of the remaining projects. I'm sure they wanted to but cooler heads prevailed.

So now they sweated through the 2nd round and Corral and Howell are mysteriously still their and fans were wondering how they got this so wrong. But Fitterer said enough is enough, we have to get the short straw guy now because someone is going to take a chance on this guy and traded up with our old pal Bilicheat.

They rest as they say is history.

Well, I mean it's not like the various personalities (and egos) in the draft room were all just gonna sit down and sing Kumbaya together.

(especially not when somebody's job might be on the line)

Guys who have been in a draft room would tell you the atmosphere sometimes gets...contentious 😕

      Off season talk.

      By pantherj · Posted

      I always just go back to what I said at the time. Trade Burns to the Rams because it's a fantastic deal. I was screaming it. I'm still angry at Fitt over that. Right after he turned down the deal I said he needed to get into a time machine and go back and make the deal. Hate that dude. Ruined our team. Trading D.J was a major mistake because what matters most in the NFL is the passing game, so you never unload a proven #1 WR when there are other options. Always trade a defensive player over a WR if you have that option available. Fitt was precious about defensive players when we had a passing offense that didn't function. That's how know he was completely incompetent. The passing offense is the top priority, so until that is functioning all defensive players are possible trade fodder. At this point we're in a rebuilding year under a new GM and a QB who looks absolutely horrendous. It makes perfect sense, if you follow all of our moves, that we would be the worst team in the NFL. Of course we are. You can't screw up as a GM that many times over the years and not ruin the franchise. We're exactly where we should be, dead last, or bottom 3. Whichever you like. But this is the here and now. Dan did a good job getting our 2nd round pick back, and we won't know about the picks until they take the field in regular season games. We're in dark until then, but if they suck the Panthers media will hide it shamelessly. Remember when Young was supposed to be a football genius? Yeah he was rancid turds out there when live fire started. There is some hope. Either Young improves and we win more games, or he stays about the same and we draft a new QB in 2025. Either way the NFL will help us out of this jam, but all we need is for Dan not to screw it up.
