So ESPN thinks we'll trade DWill for a high first round pick

For a top 3 pick? I would seriously have to consider that if I were them. Stew has shown that he can carry the load for the whole game. I would hate to see him go, but I would love to see us get a young, stud QB. I know that its a crap shoot sometimes in the draft, but if we got Clausen I would jizz my pants.

I believe it will happen. As much as I love Williams and only buy his jerseys, from a football standpoint this makes sense. We need a franchise QB and the only way to get one is with a top 10 pick.

Stewart can carry the ball as a full time starter and I believe we already have a good backup RB. It's easier to just draft another RB in the late rounds to take the load off both of them if need be.

It's only a question of where this pick would come from. Detroit? Seattle?

Are they just running the Gantt article with comments? Or are they giving their individual own take? I would be SO irate if they traded him. He's my favorite player. The only way I wouldn't hate them with every inch of my being is if we got one of the top five draft QBs out of it, and even then I'd be iffy. J-Stew's injury history scares me too much.

I also think a lot has to so with whomever is running the show here. Fox wants a bruiser, but I could see another coach wanting to stick with a speedster.

I think he would actually injury himself further by playing anyway (well, he has played while injured already).

I think Fox likes the two back system anyhow.

I guess I better hold off on getting that Williams jersey...

It'll definitely be a sad day in Charlotte and the Carolinas if D-Will is traded. I like Stewart, but he hasnt been fully healthy since he's arrived here. I think Williams should be one of the untouchables. Stewart should be traded, but he wouldnt get us our 1st rd pick.

      Deep Ball in Cyclical Decline

      By NAS · Posted

      Across the league.  5 straight years of decline. Deep pass attempts have fallen to just 7.7 per game in 2024, down from that 2019 peak. Air yards per attempt are at 7.7 yards this year—the lowest in over a decade. Overall passing yards per game have tanked too, from 496 in 2020’s early weeks to a  403 in 2024.    This trend is a result of defenses playing with two-high safety schemes designed to prevent deep passes, forcing offenses to seek yards after the catch on shorter throws.  Two-high safety calls are everywhere now—up from 44% of dropbacks in 2019 to 63% in 2024—forcing QBs to take shorter throws instead of risking picks on bombs. Add in more presnap disguises, faster pass rushes (QB pressure up to 30.1% of dropbacks), and lighter, quicker D-linemen, and it’s a nightmare for deep shots.    Offenses have adapted with emphasizing power run games to counter deep coverage and fast but leaner pass rushers.  Rushing attempts per game are up to 27.9 per game average with top teams significantly in the 30+ attempts.  QBs are emphasizing more short and intermediate throws so that the few deep passes they attempt have a higher completion percentage overall than in years past.    So to everyone who is frustrated with lack of deep passing, it’s all cyclical and right now emphasis on the run and taking more calculated shots is the way to go.

      Even though Bryce does creep into nearly every discussion at some point, there is other stuff to engage with.  If he was doing that I missed it.

      AI Analysis on ideal round to draft certain positions.

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      We desperately need to pick the best MLB in the draft this time around. We will never find another Luke, but we have to get someone back there that can run the defense on the field, cover weaknesses and correct mistakes in real-time, along with diagnose the opposing offense based on personnel, alignment and pre-snap movement. And they need to be able to hit like a freight train, cover like flypaper and tackle like a rotweiller. Not too much to ask.
