I mean we gave up a metric ton for the pick.

If we get it wrong we've set the franchise back 3 years.

This feels a bit dramatic. The only assets we gave up that could hinder us were the 2024 1st and DJ. I love DJ but he's not impossible to replace. And that first rounder next year should be a late round pick.

I mean you don't have a first round pick or second round pick next year to replace him.

You also, basically, gave away McCaffrey to make this trade happen too (we traded THAT second round pick).

We have our second next year, we don’t have a second in 2025.

Could also blow the lid off this draft if the Texans aren't goo-goo gaga over Stroud.  Ryans may want a *potential monster like Anderson.  

Then that could throw AZ into a tizzy without their expected man there.  Could trade down w/SEA for example.

And the Colts would still be screwed hehe.  

1-CAR Bryce Young

2-HOU Will Anderson

3-SEA (from AZ) CJ Stroud

Now THAT, that would be wild.  

Texans are going to take one of Stroud or Young. I feel pretty comfortable in that. So they will be taking Stroud 😉

The draft is not the only way to replace WR production. And unless I'm mistaken, one of the factors that led to us trading CMC was to amass draft capital in order to move up for a QB.

At the end of the day I just don't think this trade leaves us in as dire a position as you're making it seem.

Mike Lombardi agrees with Chris Mortensen. Clearly Carolina is dominating the smokescreen game.

For me, I think things are trending towards Young, and I think it's been that the whole time, I'll eat my crow if I'm wrong on draft night.

I think the reality of this is slowly starting to hit. Carolina is all in on Young and are giving Stroud all the opportunities to change it. I think they will stick to their guns though.

    • This gets me to the what question would you like answered zone and I neglected to make an entry about Beyce and Morgan/Canales’ hiring and the terms of the agreement that are not in the contract.    The only way this makes sense to me is there is a condition of employment that has Bryce as untouchable for whatever number of years the commitment is.   Because why not put some real competition in the mix otherwise?  Could they actually believe he is the guy? My many decades of watching NFL ball tell me he is not the guy.  And that finding someone to beat him out wouldn’t be a real hard job.     
    • As I've said repeatedly, it's baffling how Morgan (Tillis and Canales) is handling the QB room. He's upgraded every other position group on the team in 2 years - and we desperately needed to bolster that front 7 this offseason - but little Brycey is untouchable for some reason. They don't even bring in competition for him. It's utterly maddening. 
    • God you read these articles and just realise it's a self fulfilling prophecy. None of these scouts and analysts want to admit they were duped by Bryce Young coming out of College, so they run down every other aspect to prop him up. He had 50 yards against another NFL team. 50. 12 games throwing for less than 200 yards last season. Enough of this utter bullshit. He's a replacement level player - call it how it fuging is.
