If we had a promising rookie NOW we wouldn't be pounding the take for a QB in April. We're probably gonna either have to swing a costly trade up or reach big because I don't see any way that Young or Stroud is there at #9.

What makes you so sure those 2 are the only qb's who have a chance to be "promising" young rookies?  Wait, don't answer that. I'm sure you have an analytical rant built up to explain why. I'm an idiot for even asking.

I don't think that. I think they're the only two that wouldn't be reaches at #9.  I'm on record wanting Anthony Richardson despite that I think he's a reach at #9.

Calm down. Panties all in a bunch for no reason. 😂

I'm not even a bit irked much less upset.  I was honestly curious to why you are so sure it has to be 1 of those 2 for it to be a promising qb is all.

You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that if we currently had a promising rookie QB then we wouldn't be so desperate.

Well hell that's just about every team that doesn't have one. We are no different. I don't think you're understanding me.  But I'm tired and bored with this conversation so carry on.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By Icege · Posted

      Sure, there's definitely a chance that a fire sale in 2022 could've paid off but I don't think that's a certainty. It's not just about stockpiling the picks and bettering odds; it's about hitting on those picks, having a stable coaching staff to develop them, and keeping the locker room engaged. We didn't exactly have a model front office nor stable coaching staff in 2022. It's worth noting that part of the reason that DJ had to be included in the trade up for #1 was because the Bears needed an immediate, proven WR1 to help Fields. It was him or another immediate first-round pick, not a future one like what was being offered for Burns (whom teams knew that things were shaky with and that they could afford to wait). As for the Eagles, they recovered because the foundation was already in place. Pederson got flak and was ultimately fired (and was just fired again this offseason from the Jags). Their recovery was quick because the foundation was already in place: Howie Roseman and a solid roster (that included a stacked OL, a second year QB, and a veteran defense). Philly had a margin of error that just wasn't available to Carolina. I'm not against using the draft to rebuild, but a full-on teardown comes with real consequences: fan disengagement, a fractured locker room, poor development, a losing environment... and I don't believe that we had the necessary leadership at the time to cleanly navigate it. That's a gamble that I want no part of.  Now that we do have a staff that seems to be in complete alignment and building for the future rather than fighting for their jobs, I'm more inclined to observe their process and see where it leads rather than backseat driving with "perfect" hindsight.

      Trevin Wallace - PFF Breakout Nominee

      I see it a bit differently considering there is only 20M in cap space. Given how many of the premium positions are on rookie contracts their cap should not be nearly maxed out. Tillis still has a lot of work to do before these rookies will need a second contract.
