Yeah looks like we're going quick strike yac offense with Chark over the top. Mingo can get out there too though, I forgot he was basically Corrals only weapon his last year at Ole Miss

Best way to protect a smaller qb, get the ball out of his hands quickly. Run the ball well and take deep shots off play action.

You can keep saying the same thing over and over again as much as you want. Yes you would need to replace Burns with a rookie DE or go buy one in FA. Yes you would have an extra first round pick (or 2 if you go FA). These are not new revelations. 

Yeah but every defense needs a bonafide pass rusher and you just gutted your team of the star DE. You’re just going to end up wasting picks or trading assets to replace him.

Yeah, you got to think we carry 6 WRs max. I’m no particular order:

Thielen, Chark, Marshall, Shenault, Mingo, Byrd, Smith, Wright, Williams, Saunders.

The last 3 are probably gone but then you gotta decide between Bryd and Smith. 
 

Unless there is a plan to make Laviska a RB.

I like Shi Smiths talent but I’m partial to Byrd . I think he’s always been an underrated player. We should have kept him a long time ago.

Excited about the Mingo pick. I can see why Fitt liked him based on the interview above.

One tidbit that I didn't see discussed is around the 4:00 mark, Mingo is asked about Corral. Said that during his visit, Matt told him how much he liked the new coaching staff, how his body feels better, and how he is understanding the offense better than he was last year....Later on he says that if Bryce gives him too much grief for Bama beating Ole Miss that him and Matt will have to gang up on Bryce 😆

Great personality and football knowledge from this kid. People are going to love him. I'm really excited for this pick. I'm expecting him and TMJ to learn quite a bit from Thielen and Chark too. Hopefully the fresh faces and new competition brings out a spark from the whole group. We need that for our rookie quarterback.

    • Yea, I've never had high expectations since we drafted Bryce, so it's not like I'm just upset about not meeting them. I went into the season wanting to see player improvement and Canales' play design/calling improvement. I'm now to the point where I 99% only care about seeing individual player improvement.  The 1% is that I unfortunately have to still hope to see Canales play calling improvement, because that is kinda critical for the improvement of all our young offensive players. Offense is different from defense, you need good play designs and calls to show out.  On defense, everything can be a mess, but a great young player can still stand out and look great.  Our defense can be a mess but still have Horn locking down his guys on the outside, Scourton or Princely winning their pass rushing and pressuring the QB, DB swallowing up multiple blockers. But it's very hard for any QB, RB, WR, or TE to individually shine when the play design and calling is poo.
    • He actually said the Panthers are hanging on like a cat on a screen door lol
    • Oh, I'm not 100% expecting/demanding anything for next season. All that I want to see out of this season is progress, but I also understand that progress is not linear. I also understand that we've got a young team and coaching staff that are both developing. Expecting a winning record isn't reasonable at all, but I'll cheer for one all the same. I think that this is where some of the more angsty fans keep themselves in a perpetual cycle of misery: high expectations leads to low resiliency. Folks can have high standards, and the Panthers + Bryce have not met those standards, but some of those standards are completely realistic (like Bryce has to be built like Cam in order to be successful).
