That falcons game, the one that really kept us from the playoffs. The bullshit call on DJ. If we win that game, most likely we make playoffs, wilks is still here and we are stick with darnold. We would have picked near 20 and no way to move up. DJ still here. Keeping a coach/manager certainly hasnt worked out for the Phillies this far. So thank the refs.

In part yep, i dont feel they would still won enough.

 

SIde note - few weeks back I tired to bummed one of those " Keep Wilks threads, hes a winner rah rah" 

Within 7 seconds it was locked and then removed from the front page.

Been great for the forum LOLLOlollolls, loads of fun, but i guess whoever did it thought having 95 stroud/youngs was better. 

@Ricky Spanish can you help?

That's one of the reasons we are here. The main reason is because we retained Rhule for the first 1/3rd of the season. Had we kept him the full season, we would probably have that first pick without the trade.

There's no guarantee Tepper would keep Wilks just for making the playoffs. I still think a win or two would be necessary.

However you want to spin it, I'm ready and excited for what's next.

I think you are right about tepper not keeping wilks even if he made the playoffs. 

I also think when they interviewed wilks and asked " who do you have in mind for OC"

wilks- "frank reich....."

"Anyone else?"

"hmmm keep mccado......mike shula?"

Then they interviewed frank and he was like " i havnt not talked with steve and here are my 8 choices for OC"

Im also on the hype train for this coaching staff, best in history and now they got to prove it.

If we didn't fire Matt Rhule we could have had the #1 without trading anything

Had we not hired Rhule at all we’d have Herbert. Had we promoted Beane and McD instead of clung on for dear life like idiots to Rivera and Hurney we’d be the Bills. Had JR not sexually assaulted people on a weekly basis and buy his way out of prison we will still have our 1 out of 3 winning seasons. Had Tepper hired help and not treated the franchise like a toy wanting a pat on the back for figuring out what people already knew, we wouldn’t be in the middle of not only this franchise’s worst stretch but top NFL losers for the past five years…I could go on and on.

One catastrophic decision after another is why we only have a few teams we are thankful we are not. But as we say…keep pounding. I mean, it is what it is.

Whats your guy’s point?

I still don't understand why Hurney didn't trade up for Herbert. He wanted Herbert from what I remember, so why not move up a few spots to insure you land him?

The Panthers have a long history of getting jobbed by the refs, and the DJ bs call I'm sure was sent in to the league and added to our pile of busted bs calls.

I've been saying we were going to take a QB in the first round of the 2023 draft since we first brought in Darnold, and now it's happening. Thank you refs.

Reports were that Hurney wanted to trade up for Herbert, but Matt Rhule didn’t. I think the first couple drafts Matt Rhule had pretty much all the power. I have a feeling some of that power was reduced last draft based on how he treated Corral.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      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
