I hate how things turned out for him.  Hopefully he can use this as a personal and professional rebound.  Was a nice kid, good story, but just couldn't develop here.  I wish nothing but the best for him (and honestly most NFL players).  I'll look out for him this spring!

Yeah, I hate to be "that guy" but maybe don't draft QBs struggling with mental health issues because playing QB in the NFL is hella fuging stressful. If you have any mental weakness that job is gonna find them.

HC is even more stressful. Are you saying Canales can’t cut it either due to his past?

Seems like he went through something, hopefully he found peace in his life.

And someone mentioned Sam, Baker and Teddy. All of whom are/were better than BY9.

And, on another note, I actually have more fun watching UFL (XFL last year) than the NFL.

I'll second this. But a lot of that has to do with watching the DC Defenders, who I sincerely think could have beaten the 2023 Panthers.

But related to Corral, I think the UFL ideal for players like Corral. Never really got the opportunity to prove themselves, no tape, ended up in a bad situation on a bad team. If Corral puts on a decent show in the UFL it might get him invited back to an NFL training camp.

I'll never say that someone who failed to shine as a Panther in the Rhule/Fitterer regime is a provably bust.

I mean, doesn't seem to be something that has bothered this org.  Because they did it with the next QB after him too.

Should have gave him a shot Panthers would have won just as many games(if not more with a real WR #1) and still have the #1 pick... 

Wasted 2 draft picks on a guy you never got to see in a real game.

At least Corral would've been throwing to a receiver that he was very familiar with. Mingo probably would've put up more than 500 yards as well.

      Post senior bowl PFF mock draft

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I generally disagree with the concept of picking a position because of value early in the draft. For instance, if there's a really good safety, RB or ILB at pick 10, I'm choosing him over a project WR or DE. Better players make the team better. A bunch of ok players will give you an ok team. The number 1 goal of the draft should be to improve the overall talent on the team. Not to fill positions of need.  Deciding beforehand that you're picking a LT in the first or second round because Ickey went down is not the way to improve the team. Now if Dan has similar grades on 2 or 3 players and one happens to be a LT, then yeah go for it. But don't pass on your guy at ILB because you have a gap at LT or need to improve the pass rush with a DE. When those guys don't pan out then you haven't improved your team. But that LB could have been a franchise cornerstone for years to come. See Luke Kuechly and Christian McCaffrey.

      When Sanders was named as an alternate, I was all like, "That's a big ol bowl of NOPE."   In my view, they would be better off showing a documentary on the 32 "man of the year" candidates to show what they do for charities etc.
