Saw someone on the Raiders board mention that the Panthers were now looking to trade down. Obviously I have no idea who this person is or where they got their information but a trade down to 2 or 3 would make me feel a lot better about moving up, personally. Don't love losing our 1st in 24 and 25 and our 2nd this year when we have no receivers. 

If the Texans really love Young, as has been presumed, we need them to believe that some other team does as well and is trying to trade up. 

Some speculate that we traded up for Richardson which would make a trade back down make sense, but probably not until draft day so we don't get leap frogged again. I don't think any QB in this draft is worth what we gave up so this is the only way I can make it make sense. 

Drake Maye? Absolutely worth it. Caleb Williams? Yeah. The four guys in this draft? No.

You really think we gave away DJ Moore just to trade down?

We didn't loose our 1st in 25. It is a second.

I mean, we finally ",won" at something. I understand some are worried about the cost, but I'll be dammed if it don't feel good to win. It's crazy to keep doing the same thing expecting different results. We know we have a talented defense and are closer to being able to transition to this 3-4 than most people think. 

Solid offensive line that knows how to ground and pound. The compliment to any young QB. Trade up, get a QB on a rookie deal, then use that money the first few years to put a foundation around him. 

I like Lamar, but even he has question marks. If we were not going to give Watson a fully guaranteed deal...no way we fork it over for Lamar. Having a QB on a rookie deal gives us an opportunity to see how this contract turns out. Will be setting the bar for us in a few years.

To trade down one spot and get another 2nd pick while still getting the QB we wanted? Then we get a guy like Mims on a rookie deal and Stroud on a rookie deal?

Yeah, I could see us doing that. I'd actually recommend us doing that because it clears up cap for us to get defensive pieces for the 3-4 while allowing us to get guys like Mims and a TE like Will Mallory.

It's in fact possible to not slurp every decision made and somehow still not be a bandwagon fan. 


It is. But if you hate every decision and think it’s not possible for the team to make a good decision, then why continue?

      Lowest Yards Per Completion...All Time.

      By CRA · Posted

      When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays

      Saturday roll call

      By aloysius snuffleupagus · Posted

      9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant

      So much revisionist history around the pre-draft Bryce hype. The media was practically united in saying that if he were a couple inches taller he'd be the perfect prospect and it was just a question of whether he'd hold up in the NFL being that small. The Panthers did not create the mythos around him they were just the team that bought in. The team was largely praised for the move after and for surrounding him with what was considered an all-star coaching staff at the time.  Yeah part of the fanbase wanted Stroud but let's be real, we're coming from an oversized franchise QB who injured himself out the league. There was some analysis here on the limitations of Bryce's game but people were mostly just concerned he was going to turn into dust when he got sacked in the NFL.
