I agree, but i dont believe his scheme is very aggressive in general.  I wasnt just talking about last year.

Both this year and thr year before with the broncos, he. Was dealing with depleted defenses missing major starters whom absolutely impact the defense, and the ability to be aggressive. 

You haven't seen enough of him with a healthy defense to say ANTHING DEFINITIVE about how he would normally call a defense.

Means we need fast ass WRs

Not necessarily, I'm sure Chark runs a faster 40 compared to Theilan, but Theilan has more separation than Chark according to a chart in another post. Sometimes technique and route running are way more important than running in a straight line.

Nope and I have nothing to do with his show or their station. It's just short content which I think is better than posts whining about Young.

I absolutely enjoy this show. It’s better than anything in the Charlotte market. Thank you for posting these. I actually called in to the show the day the hire was announced.

I got all fired up at first, and then I realized I did the same for Reich and Rhule. Let’s see it on the field on sundays this time please. 

It’s ok to be be fired up, Lobo. I do think Canales will be successful. The question is, “how long will it take?”

Yep, saw one mock where we traded back at 33 for 2nd round picks and thought that was great too. If there is a giant batch of WR's available (which almost every mock shows in R2) gamble and try and get two of them. Or get OL and WR.

This. One thing I’ve come to realize about the draft is, after the top 15-20 picks, It’s more about finding the right players to fit what you do. Look at the Rams this year, after trading away all of their top picks a few years back.

No, that's not what I'm saying.  I think we need a longer track record of being a good dude than 2 years because it appears he was still being a bad dude while he was in Seattle, which was 2 years ago.  It is not like he interviewed to run a local business, the Panthers are a huge, worldwide company.  

I'm a father with two kids and I can't imagine doing what he did and then writing a book about it.  His kids will have to deal with that book for the rest of their lives and don't deserve that.  He's a public figure and it is not like you and I writing a book that no one will read.  It is selfish behavior and I don't like it.  I know it is sports and no one will care as long as he wins.  

Is publishing a book where you publicize your lowest points in life for people like you to freely judge and scrutinize, “selfish behavior”? It seems like he’d have more to lose than to gain from that, and going directly against your self-interests seems quite contrary to “selfish behavior”.

      An analysis of Brooks from The Fantasy Footballers provides possible insight as to why he's worth the price paid

      By TD alt · Posted

      Sometimes you get very valuable information from fantasy football sites. I found an analysis that you may want to read from The Fantasy Footballers. Perhaps you'll gain an insight as to why we moved up and got him. As always, here are a few snippets: "As expected, he dominated in the 2023 season. He averaged an impressive 2.03 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play, which ranks in the 86th percentile among all junior seasons since 2013." "Naturally, after initially playing behind two NFL-caliber running backs, Brooks’ career numbers do not jump off the page. However, his 2023 campaign gave us a glimpse of just how massive his upside could be at the next level. In fact, Brooks is one of only TWO running backs in this class to exceed 2.00 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play within their first three seasons in college."  "If you watch Jonathon Brooks’ film, you will find multiple plays in which he created yardage with his quick feet and lateral agility. He is elusive in open spaces and has an impressive ability to stack multiple cuts to avoid contact. Combined with his impressive burst and acceleration, Brooks can be a matchup nightmare in the second and third levels of the defense." "While Brooks is not the most physical running back, he does have a knack for absorbing contact and bouncing off defenders. You see this time and time again in his film." "He showcased a willingness to initiate contact with the pass rusher, the strength to maintain blocks, and the quickness to adjust to the defender’s moves. In addition, per PFF, Brooks was a top-three running back in the 2024 class in pass-blocking grade last season. He was also one of only two running backs in the class to average a 0% pass block pressure rate, highlighting just how effective he was as a blocker." "In short, Brooks has tremendous upside as a prospect. Even with his ACL injury, I would still be comfortable drafting him in the early second round of rookie drafts. In fact, I would not be shocked if he finished his career as the most productive running back in this class. However, we just need to temper our expectations for his rookie year as he slowly ramps up to full health." Marvin Elequin provides more here (including video clips): https://www.thefantasyfootballers.com/dynasty/2024-rookie-profile-rb-jonathon-brooks-fantasy-football/   Basically, Brooks has the potential to be a beast, and was well worth the 46th pick (and most mocks had him going mid second round anyway). He's not JAG. Someone had to make the move and take him, and we were the ones to do it. He's elusive, has good speed and acceleration, exceptional contact balance, and is an outstanding blocker. Just like any nice RB transitioning to the league, he will need to get used to taking what the defense gives him, while also showing discriminating patience, but he has demonstrated some ability on that front in college. Brooks' only real knock is the ACL. But ACLs aren't career ending anymore, or even skill ending as evidenced by Dalvin Cook, Todd Gurley and others. We'll just need to temper our expectations during his rookie campaign while he gets back to form. Once he does, we'll finally have the talented three-down back that has eluded us since Stew retired.

      2024 Who would you have picked

      By R0CKnR0LLA · Posted

      2.43 : Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon 2.52 : Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas 3.65 : Junior Colson, LB, Michigan 3.79 : Blake Corum, RB, Michigan 4.101 : Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas 😎 5.141 : Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia 5.142 : Austin Booker, Edge, Kansas 5.155 : Christian Jones, OT, Texas Note, I traded down from 33 (took the Arizona/Atlanta trade up to 35 - might have actually been able to net an even better deal but whatever, I'll go with this). Took the Rams trade but stayed put at 52 and at the top of the 3rd.
