I bet tepper green lights any trade up because he is sick of this poo

As he should. Our team is in win now mode. Even if we don’t have every piece in place for a title run, we current have the best roster and coaching staff in the division and I’m not sure it’s close. I think Stroud or Young could lead this team to the playoffs, maybe beyond, in year one.

This staff has an expiration date on it and the quicker they get their hands on the guy the faster the process is IMO.    McNown, staley, brown and frazier are all candidates to be poached as well as the dc

100%. You aren't keeping good assistant coaches for long. They'll get promotions elsewhere if things go well.

I was personally a little concerned with Bryce Young not throwing at the combine. I mean why not are you worried your arm isn’t as strong as the other guys?  

Or he didn't wanna take the hoodie off and show off his 204 body. Either way weird

what are you talking about 

the teams sitting at 6 and 7, right now, are potential landing spots 

if they want a franchise QB they’re going to take one, again, to reiterate, nfl teams don’t undervalue the QB position like many posters here do

Teams drafting in the top 10, most often, don't have an elite QB.  That has been the case for a long time, not just this year.  

Bad teams make bad decisions. There will be mistakes made ahead of us. Take advantage at a cost of something less than 3 years of number ones. 

Everyone here wants a QB.

Going by the draft value chart

 

The difference between pick 3 and 9 is 850 points

Pick 39 for us holds a value of 510 points
Pick 61 for us holds a value of 292 points.

 

Both 2nd and our 4th will be 18 more points on the Value scale than the difference of 3 and 9
 

 

Just our 2 2nds this year comes close to the difference in value without taking future 1sts

I hate the idea of giving up future draft picks, absolutely. However, if the brain trust we have in charge agree on someone that could be a franchise quarterback for the next decade I would do what it takes. You would gave a quarterback on a less expensive pay scale for 4/years. That would allow you to sign some quality free agents. They are hard to find, but there are some lower draft picks that turn out to be finds as well. Let’s face it, franchise quarterbacks put fans in seats.

That doesn't take into account the possibility of a bidding war for the #3 spot.

It’s definitely something you have to think hard about, if you’re the front office. You get a lot of cheap talent with first rounders. But like you said, we need fresh blood at QB to be excited about and we have a window to win right now. Who knows how long that will be open in our division. Or in a broader sense, the NFC.

No fuging way he is 204 when his pro day rolls around.   Everyone knows the game and like you say, when I bring him in to visit his ass is getting on a scale

Which is why the whole Combine process for him was silly.

He should have just gone there and done every drill. "Here's what I am, pigeon-hole me how you want".

He's not tricking the system by turning up 20lbs above his playing weight for a week.

The scrutiny is puzzling to me.

Point 1- Around "average when put on a radar gun" See below:

Point 2: Seems like a dick: The first thing he does is compliment the players that came out for the workout, thanks them and talks about how he hopes good things for them. Then he talks about how great Sam Burrow is and what he wants to work on to improve.

Meanwhile, AR (Who I really like) comes out and says he has a better arm than when Cam Newton came out.....

Richardson has the best arm in this class and I don't think it's really even close.

Yep. If he is fudging his weight somehow, he won’t pass the eye test.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
