I've seen enough of 'Dawg" Morgan, he is a bonafide idiot and Tepper got his bootlicker

You don't over pay for OGs when you can draft them every year in the 2 to 5 rounds. They are still trying to justify the Young pick. He isn't the answer but he was always going to get a shot. This is no rebuild, it just another step back like every year under Tepper.

I don't think so.  If they lose this year and Bryce isnt the answer then they can take QB #1 next year and their guards are already in place.  These are younger guards on longer contracts.  They will be there for the new qb if bryce tanks.  Signing them wasnt a just this season move.

They could be rookies on longer contracts learning in a rebuild. They dumped Burns too early for too little so they could go blow their load on those guys. The LG would have been good to pair with a rookie at RG. Now they have no center and 2 expensive OGs, 1 very expensive OT and a huge question mark at LT.

No one is talking about the 25 QB class. Last year at this time they were talking about the 24 class.

I felt this way when the move was make but honestly this past few days has made me feel a lot better that that was the case honestly.   The past few days have almost entirely revolved around starting to fix Fitterer's mistakes/clear them out.

Let's see how it works out. I hope it does clear things up, but those dark clouds on the horizon look so familiar and as I've gotten older, I've learned that when you see the same start of something, you should expect the same results.

I've always said Morgan was a meat head, back to the days when he thought it was fun to try and give rookie RBs concussions in training camp. And it may have been karma catching up with him when concussions were what derailed his career.

I could be wrong. I find myself hoping that I am wrong a lot here of lates.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
