He's another serious arm strength question for me. He throws a really floaty ball. Helluva college QB but I'm honestly not big on Penix as an NFL prospect 

At Indiana or Washington?  Dude does not throw a floaty ball now, maybe a couple of years ago.

Oh, did you see who your boys got in the transfer portal at QB?

The team needs talent across the board. That said, until a new coach is hired, it's hard to say what is needed most since we don't know what scheme the new HC will want to run. Take Oline for example. If the new guy wants to run a zone scheme, new Oline will be a priority. If he wants to stay withe the power running scheme, then that pick can be used on something else.

It won't take a new coach to figure out: What is needed most is GOOD players at just about every position.

As this season has proven, scheme matters. Just because a guy is good in man blocking, doesn't mean he can zone block. Same is true for corners that can cover zones, but not man. Or slow receivers running go routes.

If he's still there, we should take Keon Coleman from FSU or Brian Thomas Jr from LSU. Both are 6'4". I know we have had a tough time with Terrace Marshall Jr cause he's from LSU and also not very good but eventually something has got to give with drafting a WR. 

Sounds like the theory that you can't take a QB from Ohio State.  

Ja'marr Chase is pretty good

Whoever is the player that is the consensus "wow, I can't believe they didn't get taken in round 1" player is. Position is irrelevant. Or trade back and acquire picks if a team is dumb enough to offer a lot.

 

No more "consensus" players please

I’ve been enjoying Troy Franklin but he needs more polished route running for our needs.

I’d say the best combo of quick and quality route runner to make it a seamless transition.

We have needs all over but an offensive playmaker is the obvious void the size of a black hole. If they want Bryce to do well, they get him one. We need offense in this joint. If they’re not giving up on Bryce, give him the best playmaker possible. WR is preferred but I’m fine with a RB or TE.

Just look what the Lions did with Gibbs and LaPorta. And this is a saucy TE class as well.

I've already stated Egbuka. We have to get playmakers. I'll consider a QB if the right one falls. But as far as that's concerned, this is a fairly deep class of prospects, so it may be better to take your chances later and grab a WR and a TE in the meantime. We have too many spots to upgrade and not enough picks.

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

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

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

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
