You better prepare yourself for the possibility.

Prob be cheap and he ran a 4.3 40.  Fast as heck.  Decent production also.  

I admittedly haven't followed him at all or watched him much at all -- but glancing at stats how does a 4.3 dude average 10 yards per catch over his career? That's slow crappy possession guy numbers. Just Colts QB and offense being that bad? Most of the sample size is last year and the year before in very small sample size he averaged 16 which makes more sense.

I just telling you what Ian slipped up and said. Don't shoot the messenger. 

I know.  Remember 2 years ago when everyone thought the Niners were moving up to #3 for Jones?  If he has heard something, it is lying season.  if they moved up for him, they know something we don't.  I just think they would have traded with Cardinals if Levis was the guy. 

The only argument I would have to defend Levis:  When have we ever seen him in a clean pocket with a stable full of stud pass retrievers at his disposal?  We have only seen him in bad situations.  Then I think, there were people in NY who were begging for Sam Darnold....Who knows.

We don’t have a lot of options. Parris Campbell, Chark and Thielen are the best remaing free agents imo.

I’d love to see us sign 2 of those 3 if possible.

same here. 2 of those three and i'd feel fairly good about the WR. not great...but ok.

Same thought.  I then thought of the Colts' problems with QB, OL, etc.  The more I think of today--if they come away with Campbell, Hurst, and Theilen, we'd be OK--not perfect, but on a budget, I would say we have done well.

Exactly what I was thinking.  If someone from the Panthers org has said something to Ian about that, all smokescreen in hopes of hopefully getting out there and having everyone guessing.  Specially the Texans, in hopes trading down 1 spot.  Obviously they don't know who the Texans want, but they as long as the Texans don't know who we want either, it keeps the possibility open for a trade down.

He just laughed it off while the others didn't know what to say.

This is starting to feel like the NBA... where media was talking about 2 players exclusively for the number 1 pick and it ended up being Banchero (the third player).

Our OL, top draft QB, Campbell, Theilen, Hurst, pick 39 (Wr/TE), plus Williams/Foreman could be a nice offense.  Especially with our staff...

Reich and Fitterer must want to be unemployed really quickly if they gave up the house for a guy who'd have been there at 7 or 9. That's also not mentioning his status as Josh Rosen 2.0.

I would imagine Ryan didn't have enough time to throw him deep passes with that OL.

I'm just saying. I lend some credence to a slip like that.
