The winner of this trash division is probably gonna cost themselves 10 spots of draft position. Just to get their asses kicked at home in the wildcard round.

We just cost ourselves 4 today. To be honest picking 10th and 20th isn't really much different. So playoffs is really the only success we can reach now.

So if we lose 1 more game or so what was all this worth? bashing people who are looking towards the future doesnt make you not a fan it makes you a realist. I was all for tanking but these victories push us out of legit top 5 pick range so whatever win out. However remember this thread when we lose 1 more game or so and are eliminated from contention and forced to pick 15.

Just about where Michael Mayer is projected to be selected. PERFECT!!!

So hopefully we find someone at 15 worth drafting that can make a huge impact. QB's can still be drafted at spot 15 and can develop into something very good with the right coaching and support around them if they have the physical tools, and the mental toughness to stand in there and take their lumps while learning and growing as a player.

There's gonna be All-Pros in this draft. Probably a couple of HOFers. Who will they be?

I'm hoping Michael Mayer is one of them for us.  Also one of these WRs we hopefully take: Smith-Njiba/Rashee Rice/AT Perry/Xavier Hutchinson.  At RB either Chase Brown/Blake Corum/Isreal Abinkanda/Dwayne McBride.  I'd take ILB Jack Campbell or Tommy Eichenburg.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
