Panthers are taking Stroud, and Houston knows it

I actually think they have some very valid points.

Time will tell.

 

They keep slamming our defensive performance last year, which is fair enough, but they're acting as if that's a good basis to project how the defense will do this year, which I don't think holds up.

As of right now, we've heard people "in the know" say we're definitely taking Young, definitely taking Stroud, and definitely taking Richardson. 

Meanwhile, I definitely have no fuging clue who we're taking. 😂

We are definitely taking Deez Nuts

what happens if we put CJ Young or Bryce Stroud on our card? do we get both?

My guess is Goodell will say Huston is now on the clock. Then look at the person who handed him the card and say try again. Or, he could say f*ck it and make the pick for us.

Trading back for Hendon Hooker. I’ve got an inside source. My buddy busses tables at the Applebees in Rock Hill. He said Tepper and Reich and Fitterer were in there and they told him it was Hooker. And also Adam Thielen came in too.

I’d figure at the least the defense will be a work in progress with new coaches, plus the new guys and the returning guys will all be at square one. Some new guys may be ahead from playing for Evero before. 
If we are scheduled to play our division games later, it probably helps us. Could be in trouble early just from not having played enough. 

I really think we are gonna run it near Wilks level on offense to try and help the D and the new QB.

No one "knows" anything, most likely.

I'd wager a hefty sum that the organization hasn't decided on "The Guy" yet.

I doubt anyone outside of the organization truly knows. Hell, some within the organization probably don't know. But everything Fitts said about needing to be completely sold on a guy yada, yada, yada before trading up to #1 because you're essentially betting the house on the guy leads me to believe they likely knew who they were going to go get.

Or at least they made sure that they were going to get that guy if the others didn't change their mind.

I think they knew that at least one of them was worth it, if not more.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F  
    • You gonna make me post Stank before every game?  I kid, I kid. 
    • Final Avs 9 Wild 6. Defense never entered the building lol.
