About the same probably to be honest.

Yeah pretty much yet Cam could stay on the field on 4th and 1. How anyone looked at stroud and young and wanted young I have no idea. You can't know anything about football and come to that conclusion.

I wanted Richardson but I had them Richardson, Stroud, Young. But I said at the time that I could be swayed hard by their interviews. I just had extremely serious concerns about Bryce's physical tools.

Howell is literally on pace to throw for damn near 5000 yards.

I remember you and I both thought Howell was the best QB in that draft.  He clearly was and everyone here called me a homer.  SMH

It seemed obvious to me. But I'm an idiot who knows nothing about football, so I thought my eyes must be deceiving me. The "experts" said it was close, or it's Bryce. But to me, I felt like I was in an Asch group conformity experiment. It just never even seemed close to me. Stroud's tape was so transparently, obviously and overwhelmingly better than Young's, that I just don't see how anyone on a professional level thought he was the better choice.

His arm today was not the problem. The 2 abhorrent picks were on screens to our jabronie RBs. Not saying today wasn’t fuging demoralizing but nothing about his arm is the problem 

Ummm... He overthrew a screen pass by about 10 yds As he tried to float it there moving away from where he was throwing to... If you don't consider his arm a problem there, yikes...

I just don't understand how it's not obvious to everyone that our coaching staff and every team we have played seems to realize that Bryce has zero arm strength and is unable to throw it deep. How our retarded organization didn't realize this pre-draft is just mind-boggling - We need to clean house of every single person in our front office That had any input into who we draft on offense (outside of maybe McCown who wanted CJ)

Bring me back Hurney and Rivera i dont even give a fug. Who in their right mind thinks the Teppers will hire anyone better. 2025 Hurney will draft a fire quarterback. Ron will destroy them but we will have several good years

And all this contributed to why he did not participate in the combine. They knew this kid had limitations and didnt want him performing next to the other QBs for exposure.  It was definitely just a business decision to make sure he went no.1 

Cant be mad at his representation for that, but you can be mad at the organization for falling for the trap.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

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

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
