To add to that, I still don't think this is a front office and coaching staff pick. 

You “Tepper is meddling” people to chill. If Tepper meddles as you think then we would have traded up for Herbert, drafted Fields, not traded for Darnold. 
All that happened because Tepper let the football people do what they wanted. 
I think the same applies here. Tepper for sure has someone he wants but he will default to the football minds. 
TLDR: Tepper has and never did meddle. But considering some of the decisions Rhule and co made. Maybe he should have.

Aren’t you one of the people not wanting Young because of he could get hurt but liked a 26 year old prospect coming off a torn ACL? I know draft capital is miles apart but come on 

Torn ACL's don't really scare me much anymore, not with today's surgical technology, they're far from the concern they were even just 10 years ago.  I'm much less concerned about Hooker having constant knee problems due to the ACL than I am about Young's frame holding up over a long career.

He's also 25, which yes, I don't like that at all for drafting a QB, but if we were able to get him in the 2nd round while keeping the rest of the capital, I'd have liked that situation more than everything we gave up to draft a QB that scares the living hell out of me in regards to being able to stay healthy.

And apparently there's another member to the brain trust walking around the halls of Mint St. That no one has mentioned. 

Well we know Adrian Wilson is on board now as well as the special forces guy whose name I've forgotten. Haven't seen anybody really mention either of them much.

Mind you, the offseason tends to be when changes like that get made but sometimes they're not announced until after the draft.

I honestly can't recall hearing too many news items of that sort this year though (other than the ones mentioned). Typically Neil Stratton reports on those things and I haven't seen much out of him this year.

It's one that hasn't been mentioned at all, but I'm not sure why.

You heard a name or is it just "somebody" right now?

As to why, might not be official yet.

I know I've personally been hoping they'd somehow steal Lake Dawson from the Bills or maybe Trent Kirchner from the Seahawks.

Hell, Jon Robinson is still a "free agent" if I remember correctly. And of course there's always Kevin Colbert 😆

Good lord that’d be the most smokiest of smokescreens in the history of smokescreens 

You could combine the Great Chicago fire with every papal announcement in history and the constant fog around Tommy Chong but it still probably wouldn't come close 😕

It just came to me, it’s that Decker dude isn’t it? The guy who is VP of Development I think? I feel like I’ve watched some of the colts draft videos before and he was kinda tied to the hip of Reich and Ballard.

Rayz said it isn't him, or Adrian Wilson.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers.

      Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
