So what is the answer?? Waiting years for a perfect scenario that never happens?? How realistic is that??

Their answer is waiting until this team reaches their version of perfection and then we draft a QB that falls into our lap. Even though that will never happen and this team will always have holes.

Gotta stop being scared of playing to win at some point in Carolina.

Gotta stop like us fans are making the calls.  If dude bust, there is going to be a lot of "oh well, at least we gave it shot" comments. Why?  Absolutely zero skin in the risk.  It's easy to gamble with someone else's money.

Also a BIG IF.. That you hit on your picks in the first place.. 

At some point you have to take a shot to be great instead of staying the same and being meh…
 

 

I get the case for moving up, and I still lean towards not, but I do understand it. 
 

I think largely how you feel about the quarterbacks makes you lean one way or the other. 
 

It’s gonna be a long wait for the draft. Exciting times. I’m still pumped by the staff we have.

what were her wins as I honestly dont remember any?  I remember a ton of flip flopping etc and her saying there is no way mac jones gets past us per her source

Then that’s the point.. You were ultra focused on her faults and don’t even know that she had some really strong wins on draft opinions that came true.. I know for a fact she had a streak of picking our 1st round picks weeks before it happened.. I know for sure she had strong opinions that Jackson and Mahomes were going to be good before any on here knew.. All I’m saying just be objective when going after ppl..

^ bro verge is a joke and was all in on the mac jones and malik willis trains 

 

she has been exposed as a fraud and its the reason she doesnt show up any more.  I cannot remember the name of the poster that totally exposed her here but its in the history somewhere. 

Don’t  recall what she said about Willis but she was never “high” on Mac Jones. Just stated what every other reprter stated and what even the Adam Schefters reported later many teams were expecting SF to take Mac Jones until the pick was Submitted.  Which was all she said

she called the Horn pick the we prior to the draft

and the Brown pick

and the Burns pick

And to be in reality.. 

Most of the media told you last years QB class wasn’t good and most if not all had the QB’s last year graded as 2nd and 3rd round talent at best.. 
 

YOU chose not to read between the lines and recognize the true feelings on last years QB class…

It doesn’t matter what lines me you or the media read between. It’s all up to Reich and Fitt. They HAVE to know, coming out with lofty reports of being in love with a certain prospect in a position where we are, is purely bad business. They very well may love Stroud, why say “we’ll do whatever it takes to get em”. What good does that do for the franchise? Hikes up the asking price of every team in front of us. I sincerely hope the FO takes an honest and diligent approach to what they want to do, not just come out early March after the underwear Olympics and publicly announce our future is mortgaged.

Agreed .. Especially your last statement.. Pumped about the new staff now let’s see them do what they were brought here to do.. Draft and develop a young QB..

If that was the case she would still post, she was exposed as a fraud.  Clear as day.  Once I get time tomorrow I will search for the thread where she takes her ball and goes home after it happens.

Again you keep saying this but all this mortgaged stuff isn’t reality…

Teams have traded up and still had a future.. And you don’t have a clear future without getting this position settled anyway..

Again Weather you want to see it or not this teams movement’s have clearly pointed to 1 direction…

Man I really liked the thought of taking AR and letting him sit behind Carr. 

But now it looks like we’re gonna have to move up to take Richardson which at that point you might as well see if you can get Stroud.

I’m afraid of young just getting smashed on the nfl level.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
