Hurts has great intangibles and seems to have a good coaching/team situation.  I was hoping he would be available in the late rounds for us, but the Eagles took him earlier than most had expected.

There will several intriguing QB prospects in the second/third round.  At this point, I'm almost determined not to get a round one QB this year.  Move back, get some more picks and use said house money on a flyer pick on one of these QBs.  If it doesn't work out, no big loss.  If it does like Philly's flyer pick on Hurts in the 3rd round?  We hit the jackpot!

Let me just say this as I drop by (since I'm paying more attention to my NJ Devils than the Panthers this season) :

The Broncos have to be embarassed to have been beaten by Sam friggin' Darnold.

I mean...damn.   

That's about as low as you can go. 

Bright side is the Panthers have got quite the Running Back.

Fields ceiling is Cam Newton maybe Lamar  neither of which is good enough. 

Sam with Cam's processing? Steve Young.

Cams problem wasn't mental it was his mechanics. Like  Jim Furyk a lot had to go right in sequence for it to work.

 

Who would you rather have Steve Young or Cam Newton?

 

Again not saying Sam will get better but he has a lot more arm talent than Fields.

Having more arm talent means nothing if you don't have it up here (*points to head*).

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      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.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      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.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      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.
