I'm agree, not taking a TE with our 1st round, especially this year with big need in many premium position. 

I want a new QB (Levis or Richardson) and will be in great position to draft one of this guys with a late 10. 

The TE class is good this year, we can draft with the 2nd round or 3rd round Dalton Kincaid or Tucker Kraft. 

Have you genuinely seen Richardson play QB? He's such a massive project - Allen is a unicorn, don't bank on it happening again.

I won't lie, I've always liked Darnold so I have a bit of a slant there. I did think he was only worth being a back up QB after last season. Darnold had one major flaw, he even famously said it himself, seeing ghosts. The one thing I have seen so far from him is that is not the case. He has protection and even when it break down he steps into the throw and the hit that is coming and delivers the ball. If he can keep that up he has all the physical talent in the world to be a starting QB in the NFL.

I mean all I'm saying is he has to over come his fatal flaw. Right now in the limited time we've seen him, it looks like he has. He has some important games coming up where he cannot be the reason we lose and at some point I am sure he is going to have to bring us back from being down a score or two, if the rest of the team is clicking can he do it? To me that will be the sign. Anyways Darnold is trending up, you gotta have a little hater in you not to see that.

I've been saying it since Baker was traded...we have to hedge our bets in the draft and re-sign Darnold to a open-competition QB1/solid QB2 kind of contract.  Take Marcus Mariota's deal for example.  If Darnold continues to play well the next couple of games, I wouldn't hate a contract similar to this.

I should have added a little more text to make my meaning more clear.  I am applauding your willingness to speak your mind, when so many Darnold haters are prowling around here.

    • Let’s be real, there’s no way the Bengals can trade him for less than first round value from an optics stand point.
    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
