Lawrence turned me completely off of him when he expressed his lack of a desire to be great. That football was just a job to him. 

fug that. 

Yeah that flew under the radar for such an entitled comment to make. There were literally hundreds of QB's busting their ass around the country the same year hoping for that draft pick and he acted like he could take it or leave it. Zach Wilson was another who didn't get prodded at over his leadership/character at all and it seems like everyone on the team and staff in NY can't stand the guy.

I was never super high on Lawrence like everyone else. Count me as someone who has liked Stroud more. 

I honestly wasn't super high on Lawrence either. Don't get me wrong, I thought he was a good prospect and a worthy #1 overall pick but I didn't get the hype about him being the generational type prospect that he was touted to be by most of the media.

He impressed me in the 2nd half against the Chargers in the playoffs this year. After having quite possibly the worst half I've ever seen a QB play in the 1st half (and honestly that's not an exaggeration) he bounced back big time in the 2nd half and led the Jags to (an admittedly undeserved) win. That game showed me the guy is gonna make it.

I only remember him saying football doesn’t define who he is as a person. A completely different thing.

This. You guys read into things what you want, which isn’t out of the normal. 
 

His comment was based on him having confidence in himself as a person outside of football. That if he lost football today, he would be fine because of his faith and knows life has more to offer than just football. I guess people can spin anything negatively… lol

My opinion was from watching the interview in which he actually said what he said.  

No spin. 

I don't base opinions off bullshit. I don't put spin on things. I'm a shoot from the hip, don't sugar coat it.

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
