Trade for Hopkins and we no longer than have that second pick.

we might be able to get him for a third and maybe a day 2 pick next year. 

would be worth it even for a 2nd this year. i would not be upset at all.

if we can pull off DHop and Chark i'd be ecstatic.

I think this totally depends on who you’re targeting. If you’re targeting a polished day 1 starter (Young) then imo you make the move for Hop. Otherwise with any of these other QBs I think you keep the draft capital. 
 

Andrew Luck’s first year he went 11-5 and threw for 4300 yards, 25TDs. If we have a lineup of Hop, Marshall, Hurst, Sanders then I think 4500 yards, 30-35 TDs is totally doable in the Reich system for Young or Stroud. They’re going all out this season and I’m loving it.

There are a bunch of slot receivers in the second round, but no real #1 WRs worthy of that pick. We need to either trade back up into the 1st round for a #1, or trade for a WR from some other team, or get a FA. One of these things is going to happen imo. The again, Fitt just foolishly restructured Jackson so he might do something else stupid with the WR situation.

That’s why I don’t want us to ignore the TE prospects for the second tier of WRs in a class where the top tier is well below recent years. Cheaper FA WRs could be better placeholders to maybe use our 2024 2nd or 2025 1st on a better, true WR1.

Dear lord, those stats are like the ridiculous numbers the Teddy fan boys put up there.

Luck put up great stats with Wayne, Hilton and Allen/Fleener at TE. We don’t have that or even close to that and you think Young/Stroud as rookies will better that?

I feel like this fan base is setting themselves up for a lot of disappointment this year expecting us to be real contenders year 1 of a rookie QB and a new staff.

Sir this division is winnable.

 

The NFC is weak only the Eagles are a legit threat. 49ers good but they have a question mark at QB. We can absolutely be a contender in the NFC with Hopkins.

 

Our defense is young and getting better every year. Oline is legit. We just added a top 7 rb talent. The only major questions left is WR.

Sir he wants a ring not a division winning T Shirt..

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
