I remember reading during the Rhule era, either a media guy or someone in the league, that their opinion was that we had a lot of players starting for us that wouldn’t on other teams. 
Our team was so horribly constructed as a NFL team.

I've been saying that for years now.

Definitely true under Rhule, not that the roster he inherited was anything special.

I don't think Marty ever really understood cohesive roster building. He was more just like "Hey that guy's good, let's get him" and just threw it all together.

It's kind of like the difference between playcallers who have a specific plan in mind vs guys who just look down at a list and go "Ah hell, let's try 42 right" 😕

How do they know he was that good through the season? There is only one way to know in the NFL how good someone truly is and that's in the game. Practices are glorified walk throughs now. 

This is like Shanahan saying "we didn't know how good Purdy was until he came in that game" and people being upset about it. If Shanahan got the QB evaluation of his own roster wrong, why not say something about him?

Threads about two former Panthers coaches holding strong on the first page as we are days away from the season opener.

Think we need some wins here in Carolina?

I don't want to hear poo about rebuilds or taking time. This franchise needs a jolt. I'm not gonna want to hear any excuses if the same issues plague the team.

    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
    • Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.
    • In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
