watch us wind up with the #1overall  pick next year & oh boy wouldn't that be one big collosal f&@k up...

as of right now it looks like we're going to have a  rookie under center & neither Stroud or Young are better QBs than Trevor Lawrence. .okay then you have a mediocre running game after Foreman well there is no real depth. plus this is by far the worst wide receiving corps in the entire NFL right now & are best TE on the entire team is Ian Thomas 

that's a lot of ground to cover in a short period of time ...just saying

In one season we've traded away our two standout offensive players.

It's certainly an... interesting way to build a roster.

I had been pro trading for #1 from the beginning. Once Lovie won that game, I would have called Poles before the Texans were in the locker room.

Chicago was always the ideal partner. They're already a young team with a ton of cap room. Having a million more picks was never going to be more valuable to them than a bona fide player, which was confirmed via reports that we tried to give the 2025 #1 and they insisted on DJ instead. 

 

Carolina was never going to have to mortgage away the future. Instead they'll now get to secure it.

Those 2 standout offensive players only help net us about 17 pts per game. Had to try a different approach.

Why are you comparing them to Trevor Lawrence?

 

We don't need them to be Trevor Lawrence. Just be the best QB in this draft. 

 

Remember the Cam was never Luck but we got to a SB with Cam. Sometimes the generational guys don't get to the big game.

because it's the closest example not only timewise but very  comparable situation on the offensive side of the ball where there in Jacksonville during Lawrence's rookie season & even still now he like in Carolina this year had or  let's say is going to have similar circumstances on the offensive side of the ball where neither one of the teams had or is going to have hardly any real weapons per say  on the offensive side of the ball .

yeah & then it's going to be even harder to replace a lot of these guys through the draft  at key positions  on the offensive side of the ball since we have invested into so many draft picks into just one position 

you look at the cost in just draft picks alone that we have invested into finding a Qb over the past two years just since Scott Fitterer has  been GM & it starts with the  Sam Darnold trade with the N.Y. Jets ( x1  2nd round pick & x1 4th round pick & x1 6th round pick ) then after that you draft Matt Corral after making a trade last year at the draft with the New England Patriots to move up from the 4th round back into the 3rd round & so that cost you not just one but two draft picks in the form of a ( x1 3rd round pick & x1 4th round pick) & then you acquire via a trade last year's 2018 #1 overall draft pick Baker Mayfield from the Cleveland Browns for a  ( x1 5th or x1 6th round draft pick to be deyermined later ) l& then  now insert trading up to the #1 overall pick with the Chicago Bears for some unknown in form of a  rookie QB and that cost us what  (x 2 1st round picks & x2 2nd round picks & 25 year old DJ Moore just entering the prime years of his NFL carrer )...

now add all that up& see what it equals.l.just saying

And 4 consecutive top 10 picks 

Nothing else matters until you have a QB

Chicago is definitely going to have a top 10 pick next year but it’ll be their own

The Jags had Meyer coaching. That’s a huge difference….

Chicagos season is going to come down to free agency on defense. They need about four new starters all in the front 7. If they pull that off they aren’t picking in the top 10 with their own pick. But there’s a good chance they are with ours.

They will have to trade a player me thinks to correct this turn of events. I told you guys that if they trade up they will have a hard time filling the splash wish list. Now it will be even harder without DJ because they will have to find an upgrade for him as well. 

This will not be popular with some but, I think we need to move Chinn for draft capital or a player.  What other team needs a Kam Chancelor type SS?

here let's now do the math..

A) x2 first round draft picks

B) x 3 second round draft picks

C) x 1 third round draft pick

D ) x 2 fourth round draft picks

E) x 1 fifth round draft picks

F) x 1  sixth round draft pick

that equals 10 draft picks in just two years at one position alone only to have one unknown commodity left on the roster this upcoming season in the form of a rookie QB to show for it

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
