Anyone know how these strengths/weaknesses line up with what we know from Mcadoo?

All we know of McAdoo is what he did with Manning. I would think he would have to take a different approach with Mayfield. What I get from it though is we will be a run first team with the pass set off that. That's what Corral does well and what Baker does well.

Honestly I think what Baker would thrive in is a modified version of the offense we ran with Cam Newton. Now one would argue that Baker can't do that because he isn't the running threat Cam was, but that's where the "modified" comes in. Replace Cams running threat with the RPO. Instead of the read options we ran with Cam we'd run an RPO with Baker. Instead of reading the D to see if he keeps to run or hands off he's reading the D to see if he keeps to throw or hands off. The rest of the concepts cater to Baker's strengths. His strengths and weaknesses as a passer are similar to Cam's.

I know some of you aren't excited for Baker, but Darnold he is not. I'd also take what Warner say's more seriously than emotions of others. 

 

Pro level breakdowns.

Panthers fans have been garbage, especially on this board, since 2018 or so. If we can tailor and offense to what Baker does well, and the team will allow him to lead, we will be fine. 

The OBJ situation in Cleveland divided the locker room and people blamed Magfield but the reality of the situation is that wherever OBJ has gone, chaos has followed. Then you add the Browns cultural issues as a whole and you have a recipe for what happened.

Baker took the Browns to the playoffs and won in Pittsburgh. Let that sink in for a moment. 

I'd prefer it if we traded Darnold now and extended Baker for two years, even if he isn't what we thought, he's cheap now and if he sucks, we can draft Grayson McCall next year.

I think we would trade Darnold if we could. Nah, don't extend Baker. Let him prove it. You can always franchise tag him if need be if he plays well.

If Rhule finds success with Mayfield, fine. We're not going to find success unless Rhule proves himself as a capable NFL coach. Winning is winning. If Rhule wins he's earned the right to hang around. Another poo show of a season and he should be unceremoniously poo canned and kicked to the curb.

I get it...the realist in me is conditioned for the latter....

Thanks Ivan, for the break down.  I accept what Kurt says too.  Wish he was playing for the Panthers.

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
