The Panthers are definitely a better team now. That doesnt mean we are good, but at least competitive. I don't see the logic in this trade unless you(the front office) believes he is a long term solution at QB. I had us at around 6 wins now I think that puts us at 8 or 9.

Wasted a 3rd on Corral. This FO continues to make strange moves. 

Well hopefully we at least wait until the end of the season to extend him, if we go that route. Otherwise, Corral won't need to get onto the field this year, and we obviously are not in contention for a top QB next year. That is what is strange to me.

all this does is highlight how pointless the 2022 season is.  Because when it comes to a conclusion......we won't have anything at the QB spot worth talking about.  We will just be able to talk about a 3rd rounder who never got to show anything.   

I'd rather watch Baker than Sam though.  I'd probably rather watch Baker react to being in the Rhule shitshow too.   I mean, if Teddy was too strong of a personality for Rhule.....I'm sure Baker will be too.

I don’t love it because IMHO it mean Corral isn’t going to get any first team reps so of course we’ll have no clue if he’s the future and our pick in 2023 will again not be high enough to get the best couple QBs.

If Mayfield looks amazing and leads us to the playoffs, great. If we end up with 5-8 wins, we again screwed up our QB spot for a one year retread. Unfortunately, I see the latter as more likely than the former.

That's assuming that Darnold stays on the roster. They arent going to just hand baker the job. a 5th and 5mm can be thrown away without concern.

      Smitty on TMac

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
